Alex Henshaw's Percival Mew Gull won the 1938 King's Cup Air Race at an average speed of 236.25 mph over a triangular course of 1012.14 miles - the fastest ever recorded by a British aircraft. In February, 1939, Henshaw also flew a Mew Gull from England to South Africa & back in just 4 days, 10 hours & 15 minutes, smashing the previous record. These records still stand today.
