Blackburn Nautilus

Military Aircraft

The Blackburn 2F.1 Nautilus was a British single-engine, two-seat biplane spotter and fighter built in 1929, with wings that folded for carrier storage. Only one was completed. It was built for an Air Ministry specification issued in June 1926 that did not settle on the final engine until October 1927, and prototype contracts were placed only in January 1928, so the four chosen manufacturers did not produce prototypes for trial until 1929. The Nautilus first flew at Brough Aerodrome in May 1929, flown by T. Neville Stack, and testing led to changes to the radiator and elevators. It did not win a production order.
