    The
    de Havilland DH.53 Humming Bird
    is a British light aircraft of the 1920s. In response to the Daily Mail Light Airplane Competition of 1923, de Havilland built two DH.53s which were named
    Humming Bird
    and
    Sylvia II
    . The DH.53 was a low-wing single-seat monoplane powered by a Douglas 750 cc motor-cycle engine. At Lympne in October 1923 the DH.53s did not win any prizes but gave an impressive performance for a light aircraft. The Air Ministry subsequently became interested in the design and ordered eight in 1924 as communications and training aircraft for the Royal Air Force. Early in 1924 twelve aircraft were built at Stag Lane Airdrome and were named
    Humming Bird
    after the first prototype. Eight aircraft were for the Air Ministry order, three were for export to Australia, and one was exported to Aero in Prague. One further aircraft was later built for an order from Russia. The production aircraft were powered by a 26 hp (19 kW) Blackburne Tomtit two-cylinder engine.
