This website tells the unique and fascinating story of a little-known memorial to British Aviation. It includes references to Frank K. McClean and some 12 other British pioneer aviators, as well as three "Designers and Constructors" and four members of the "Royal Naval Air Service." It includes photographs of the memorial to the pioneers and is an appropriate entry point for a discussion of British pioneers. It may be accessed by clicking on:
