Aviation Historian 6 / F.Merriam - Early Days at Eastchurch /Echoes from Dawn Skies/ (1)
Ogilvie flying Short-Wright No 6 with an NEC engine at Camber Sands in October 1910. Contrary to Ogilvie’s own statement, surviving records indicate that the machine was acquired by the Wright brothers from Charles Rolls’s estate following his death, and was sold on to Ogilvie, who then modified it to Wright Model B configuration.

Aviation Historian 6 / F.Merriam - Early Days at Eastchurch /Echoes from Dawn Skies/ (1)
“’Ello, ’ello, ’ello, what’s all this then?” A policeman looks on as Ogilvie prepares his Baby Wright racer for the Gordon Bennett Trophy race on July 1, 1911. By his own admission, Ogilvie had little chance of winning, but completed the course nevertheless, despite having to stop to refuel on his 20th lap.
