Saunders Roe Experimental Jet Aircraft Art Prints by Ivan Berryman. - Direct Art
DHM1715B. Saro Sr.53 by Ivan Berryman. <p>A Ministry of Supply contract issued in the mid 1950s resulted in the unique Saro SR.53 supersonic interceptor fighter, which incorporated a mixed powerplant consisting of an Armstrong Siddeley Viper turbojet mounted above a liquid-propellant de Havilland Spectre rocket motor. First flown in 1957, the aircraft displayed good characteristics, but was ultimately not put into production.<b><p>Signed by Eric Winkle Brown (deceased). <p> Small limited edition of 30 prints. <p>Image size 12 inches x 8 inches (31cm x 20cm)
DHM1714B. Saro SR.A1 Over the Needles by Ivan Berryman. <p>In 1947, the first of three SR.A1 experimental flying boat fighters took to the air from the Saunders Roe factory at Cowes. Powered by two Metropolitan-Vickers F2 / 4 Beryl turbojet engines, this unique and innovative machine displayed excellent performance, providing the pilot with an ejection seat and fully pressurised cockpit. Sadly, service chiefs concluded that land-based fighters were the way forward and no further examples of the SR.A1 were built.<b><p>Signed by Eric Winkle Brown (deceased). <p>Small limited edition of 50 prints. <p>Image size 12 inches x 8 inches (31cm x 20cm)

Eric Winkle Brown (deceased)
*Signature Value : £40 (matted)

Most highly decorated Royal Navy pilot. Holder of the world record for most types of aircraft flown, at 487, and for the largest number of aircraft carrier landings - 2407. Had a 31 -year career in the Royal Navy, and is the Fleet Air Arm's most decorated pilot. After a distinguished operational tour flying from Britain's first escort carrier, he was selected as a test pilot in 1942 and then served at A&AEE Boscombe Down before being appointed as Chief Naval Test Pilot at the Royal Aircraft Establishment at Farnborough, where he remained for six years. During that time he commanded the Enemy Aircraft Flight, the High Speed Flight and finally the prestigious Aerodynamics Flight. During the Korean War he served as a test pilot at the US Naval Air Test Center at Patuxent River for two years. While in his appointment as Head of the British Naval Air Mission to Germany from 1957-60 he was seconded to the Focke-Wulf Co. for a spell as their test pilot. In his test-flying career he has flown a world record 487 basic types of aircraft, and made a world record 2,407 aircraft carrier landings in fixed-wing aircraft. He is a past President of the Royal Aeronautical Society, an Honorary Fellow of the Society of Experimental Test Pilots and a Master Pilot of Russia. In 1995 he was inducted into the US Navy's Carrier Aviation Test Pilot Hall of Honor, the only non-American to have received this accolade. Eric Winkle Brown died on 21st February 2016.
