1921 August 23rd. Died in the R38 crash at Hull.
1921 Obituary [1]
MR. F. WARREN, another victim of the airship disaster, had, like Mr. C. I. R. Campbell, been an Admiralty official.
He entered Devonport Dockyard in 1892, and distinguished himself in the Dockyard Technical School. He joined the Admiralty as a draughtsman on the staff of the Engineer-in-Chief of the Navy in 1903, and was connected with the engine work of airships from the time the Admiralty assumed responsibility for airship design. When the work was transferred to the Air Ministry, Mr. Warren was appointed an assistant airship constructor.
He was an authority on all matters connected with high-power internal combustion engines for submarines as well as for airships.
