bill staines - bill hosie lyrics
bill hosie built a plane, a survivor from the schneider trophy reign
he seemed like a nice old guy, with his
baseball cap and his sunlit eyes
he took the airframe, motor, and wings
and restored all the fabric, the floats, the
struts and things
and “the shark on banana skis” was set
to roar once more over cornwall seas
in the “27” schneider race, it was a
supermarine that took first place
the year bill hosie was born, there were
still tall ships sailing ’round cape horn
but the s5 supermarine was the fastest
seaplane the world had ever seen
nearly 300 miles an hour with a napier
lion engine to give her power
and her daughters flew in world war
two, their pilots were known as the first
of the few
when the battle of britain raged, it was the
spitfire blazed across the history page
but bill hosie had a dream to haunt the
skies with the ghost of a supermarine
and she rose on the steppe again with the
spirit of a schneider trophy-winning
seaplane
she took to the cool spring air with bill
hosie sitting in the pilot’s chair
she banked along the cornwall sh-r-, but
her tail broke away and she flew no more
she flew from her flight of grace the year
they revived the schneider trophy race
and the supermarine s5 was the plane that
made bill hosie feel alive
