The Bristol Type 99 Badminton was a single seat, single engine racing biplane of the 1920s, built by the Bristol Aeroplane Company and designed by F. S. Barnwell. It was an equal span biplane of wood and metal with fabric covering, a conventional tailskid undercarriage and a nose mounted 510 hp Bristol Jupiter VI engine. Only one was built, registered G-EBMK, and it first flew at Filton Aerodrome on 5 May 1926. It was entered in the 1926 King's Cup Race but force landed with a fuel feed problem. Rebuilt in 1927 as the Type 99A with new wide span tapered wings, it crashed fatally at Filton two days after gaining its certificate of airworthiness.
