Bristol M1c Full Engine Run

Shuttleworth's Bristol M1c is a reproduction, built by Northern Aeroplane Workshops and delivered to the Collection in October 1997. After detail finishing and engine testing to satisfy airworthiness regulations, it first flew on 25th September 2000.
The M1c was the first monoplane to fly with the RAF. Powered by a Le Rhone 9 cylinder engine, giving 110hp, it boasts a single Vickers machine gun synchronised to fire through the propeller arc.
The Air Ministry ordered 130 M1c aeroplanes, with the first delivered in 1916-17. Although they did not serve operationally over the Western Front, a number of unarmed examples were issued to Flying Training Stations in England. Due to their excellent performance, they invariably became the personal mounts of senior officers.
The Shuttleworth Collection in Bedfordshire, England is home to a vast array of vintage aircraft, vehicles, as well as agricultural machinery. The Collection hosts a series of flying days from May to October each year, and is open to the public on non-flying days as well.
