Wokingham Flyer

   The Wokingham Flyer was built at Wokingham, Surrey, during 1909 and was fitted with an 80 h.p. engine. The cigar-shaped fuselage was 140 ft. in length and could be reduced to 60 ft. The wings were telescopic, and their span of 20 ft. altered to 14 ft. The height of the machine was changeable from 31 ft. to 16 ft. Accommodation was provided for the pilot and several passengers, and the machine was equipped with electric lighting, hammocks and a lavatory. The Flyer was not successful.
