    This is my dad, George Stratton Armistead, with his BeeGee, that he flew in the 1936 Bendix Air race! I'm so proud! He died at home, in Pacific Palisades, Ca. in 1955. My sister Judy Armistead, and myself, George Kimbrough Armistead, are his adopted children. I have other memorabilia from this fantastic TEST PILOT, whom I miss dearly! I love you Dad, George

Unlike the other famous Gee Bee aircraft, the Q.E.D had the distinction of never finishing a race it was entered in
