Cyril Eyton Kay CB CBE DFC (25 June 1902 – 29 April 1993), known as Cyrus Kay, was a New Zealand aviator and military leader. Born in Auckland, Kay joined the Royal Air Force in 1926 for a five-year period of service, during which time he attempted to break the record for the fastest flight from England to Australia. He remained in aviation in civilian life and was a participant in the MacRobertson Air Race of 1934. He joined the Royal New Zealand Air Force (RNZAF) in 1935 and on the outbreak of the Second World War in 1939, he was in England preparing to ferry to New Zealand a Vickers Wellington bomber purchased by the New Zealand government for the RNZAF. He became part of No. 75 Squadron, flying Wellingtons on bombing operations. Awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross for his performance on one such operation, he later commanded the squadron for several months. Later in the war he served in New Zealand as commander of a number of RNZAF bases. After the war, he remained in the RNZAF, rising to the rank of air vice-marshal and serving as Chief of the Air Staff from 1956 until his retirement in 1958. He died in London, aged 90.
