Hamble Baby
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Fairey Aviation built a number of Sopwith Baby floatplanes at its Hamble works. In an attempt to improve the design, Fairey fitted a new design of wing to the original baby fuselage. A production order for this aircraft was forthcoming, and the 'new' design called the Hamble Baby. Parnall also produced Hamble Babies, which had some detail differences from the Fairey produced aircraft.
