Seablade CIC
Reclaiming the UK’s Place in Aviation Speed Record History
An innovative new project to design, build, and fly the world’s fastest piston-powered seaplane.
The Mission
Project Seablade is a pioneering UK wide endeavour to set a new world speed record for a piston-propelled seaplane.
Inspired by the UK’s great aviation heritage, it is set to combine advanced design with the restoration of an iconic Rolls-Royce engine and be flown with unparalleled airmanship to reclaim a title that has stood unchallenged since October 1934.
As a Community Interest Company (CIC) our designated “benefit” is in the field of Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths (STEM); there will be a full program to inspire the next generation of British engineers, designers, pilots and technical air and ground crews from our core demographic of school-aged children and young students.
Through STEM outreach, education partnerships, and hands-on opportunities, Project Seablade will encourage young people to explore aerospace, design and engineering, and innovation for future study and careers.
