The Percival Mew Gull was a British racing aircraft of the 1930s. It was a small, single-engine, single-seat, low-wing monoplane of wooden construction, normally powered by a six-cylinder de Havilland Gipsy Six piston engine. During its racing career it set many records and was considered a significant, efficient design, one that eventually reached a top speed of 265 mph (425 km/h) on a modest 205 hp (153 kW) in its final 1939 form.
During the second half of the 1930s, Mew Gulls were dominant in air-racing in the UK and consistently recorded the fastest times until the outbreak of war stopped all civilian flying in late 1939.
The first E2H, G-AEKL was fitted with a De Havilland Gipsy Six and became Percival's personal mount. In July 1936 he finished 4th in the King's Cup Race. Later in August, he finished 7th in the 174-mile race for the Folkestone Trophy.
G-AEKL was sold on, and re-engined and modified to enter in the 1936 Schlesinger Race from England to South Africa (6,154 miles). However, ten days before the start, G-AEKL was involved in a fatal taxiing accident at Liverpool Speke Airport, in which Tom Campbell Black was killed, and the aircraft was withdrawn from the race.
