Brown Aircraft Co. : ウィキペディア英語版 | Brown Aircraft Co. The Brown Aircraft Co was an American aircraft manufacturer of the 1930s and 1940s. ==Origins==
During 1926 Lawrence W. Brown established a small aircraft modification and design operation at Clover Field Santa Monica, California. His initial project was to modify a Thomas-Morse S-4 as a parasol monoplane with a 90 h.p. Curtiss OX-5 engine. In 1929 he built a similar two-seat aircraft powered by a 260 h.p. Menasco-Salmson engine. In 1931, Brown moved to Montebello, California and established the Brown Aircraft Co.. From 1933 he built a series of small low-wing racing monoplanes and these competed in the major air racing meetings held in the United States. Postwar he built the L-20 Brownie, a high-wing monoplane intended for operation by private pilots, but on Brown's death on 25 December 1945, the firm's activities ceased.〔 The sole surviving original aircraft built by the firm is the Brown B-1 Racer which is preserved in the ''Wings over Miami'' aircraft museum at Tamiami Airport near Miami.〔Ogden, 2007, p. 216〕
