The Grahame-White G.W.E.6 Bantam was a British single-seat sporting biplane, designed by M Boudot and built by Grahame-White Aviation Company at Hendon.
Development
The Bantam was a conventional biplane powered by a nose-mounted 80 hp (60 kW) Le Rhône rotary engine with a single open cockpit.[1] Two aircraft took part in the 1919 Aerial Derby at Hendon Aerodrome, but neither finished the race.[1] A third example was flown in South Africa in the 1920s.[1]
