Charles Edward Stuart (1720–1788), aka "Bonnie Prince Charlie" or "The Young Pretender", Jacobite claimant to the thrones of Scotland, England and Ireland
GeneralCharles Stuart (1810–1892) was a British politician and an officer in the British Army.
Military career
He was the son of Captain John James Stuart, son of General Sir Charles Stuart (1753–1801), and Albinia Sullivan. He was a great-grandson of the 3rd Earl of Bute.
Charles StuartF.S.A. (1838–1907) was an English landscape painter who was active from 1881 to 1904.
Life and family
Charles Stuart was born in 1838 to William and Amelia Stuart, both artists. Other Stuart family members were also artists including his brother William who immigrated to Australia in 1859.
In 1860, Stuart exhibited a work entitled Fair and Fruitful Italy (and J. M. Bowkett) at the Royal Society of British Artists. The 'J. M. Bowkett' was the artist Jane Maria Bowkett, and two years later, after obtaining a special licence, the couple married at West Ham on 6 February, 1862, with their first child, Leila Imogene, born four months later. The couple had six children but only Leila Imogene, Charles Edward Gordon, born 1865, and William Arthur, born 1869, survived infancy.
The Stuarts spent the early years of their marriage living with Charles' parents in Stepney and Gravesend before making their homes in South Kensington and Fulham Road, in the mid-1870s, and then moving to the fashionable Melbury Road, Holland Park, in 1880. Around this time Stuart was nominated for the Londongentlemen's club the Savage, and is depicted, with fellow members in a frontispiece illustration to a 1907 club history. Stuart was also a fellow of the Society of Antiquaries of London.

Amazing Aircraft: Pterodactyl, And The Origins Of The Tailless And Flying Wing
One of the most unusual series of experimental aircraft produced in the UK since the start of powered flight has to be the ‘flying wing’ Pterodactyls designed by Captain Geoffrey T. R. Hill with, in the main, assistance and support coming from Westland Aircraft. This article, updated and revised after having originally been published in Aeromilitaria, is understood to be one of the fullest accounts of these aircraft written so far and includes material accessed in the British National Archives, plus images that have never previously been published. Beginning with the lightweight Pterodactyl I of 1924, Hill took his concept forward through several stages to the test flying of a full-scale fighter prototype, the Pterodactyl V of 1934, and proposals were also made for a flying boat and othe...

One of the most unusual series of experimental aircraft produced in the UK since the start of powered flight has to be the ‘flying wing’ Pterodactyls designed by Captain Geoffrey T. R.

This article, updated and revised after having originally been published in Aeromilitaria, is understood to be one of the fullest accounts of these aircraft written so far and includes material accessed in the British National Archives, plus images that have never previously been published. Beginning with the lightweight Pterodactyl I of 1924, Hill took his concept forward through several stages to the test flying of a full-scale fighter prototype, the Pterodactyl V of 1934, and proposals were also made for a flying boat and other versions. No production machines were to be built, but Hill’s attempts to create such radical airplanes for their day should not be forgotten.
The Pterodactyl concept was the brainchild of Captain (later Professor) Geoffrey T. R. Hill, and he first began his work towards building and flying a trial airplane in 1923. This effort was looked upon, to begin with at least, as an attempt to improve safety in flight, what Hill described as
‘aerodynamic safety’ – the freedom from accidents caused by a lack of control (1). Faced with the fact that around fifty lives were being lost in the Royal Air Force every year, and with a large proportion of these due to accidents brought about by a loss of control in the air, Hill set himself to try to design an airplane which would “never, through an error on the part of the pilot, get out of control” (2). Having seen the results of Hill’s theoretical work, the Aeronautical Research Committee (ARC) then started wind channel testing at the Royal Aircraft Establishment (RAE).
