ConstructionFlying Fish was laid down on 9 August 1896 at the Palmer shipyard at Jarrow-on-Tyne and launched on 4 March 1897. During her builder’s trials she made her contracted speed requirement. She was completed and accepted by the Royal Navy in June 1898.[3][4]Service historyPre-WarAfter commissioning she was assigned to the East Coast Flotilla of the 1st Fleet based at Harwich. On 16 December 1901 Flying Fish was re-commissioned by Lieutenant Hugh Percival Buckle for service on the Mediterranean Station, as tender to the battleship {{HMS|Royal Oak|1892|2}}.[5] After leaving Devonport for her commission in February 1902, she encountered hard weather in the Bay of Biscay and was knocked about so that she started leaking, and had to port at Brest. She was sufficiently repaired to be able to return to Devonport for more extensive repairs in late February,[6] and eventually arrived at Malta two months late on 16 April 1902.[7] In September 1902 she visited the Agean sea with other ships of the station for combined manoeuvres near Nauplia.[8] On 30 August 1912 the Admiralty directed all destroyer classes were to be designated by alpha characters starting with the letter 'A'. Since her design speed was 30-knots and she had three funnels she was assigned to the C class. After 30 September 1913, she was known as a C-class destroyer and had the letter ‘C’ painted on the hull below the bridge area and on either the fore or aft funnel.[9] World War IFor the test mobilization in July 1914 Flying Fish was assigned to the 8th Destroyer Flotilla based at Chatham.
