Granville Gee Bee R-6
The sole Granville Gee Bee R-6 International Super Sportster, named "Q.E.D." Quod Erat Demonstrandum (it is proven), and later named "Conquistador del Cielo" (Sky Conqueror), was the last in a series of racing and touring monoplane aircraft from the Granville Brothers. The R-6H was dogged with bad luck throughout its career and had the distinction of never finishing any race it entered.
