Reginald Wells seaplanes

Dave Smith:
Yes please Mike. Anything to do with aviation is of interest to me, particularly that bit about a concrete runway at Rainham . Thanking you in anticipation.

Mike Gunnill:
I found this during a clear-out yesterday. I have a feature somewhere. The tale of Reginald Fairfax Wells who designed early sea-planes. He was successful with his company Wells Aviation and had a huge factory in Chelsea in 1914. Prior to that he was based near Rainham, Kent. Still today there is a concrete slipway, he used. Now very overgrown.


If anyone is interested I will post pix and the feature I did.
