EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the innovative Hydroplane on the Tigris River in Iraq, designed for rapid transit during the early 20th century. The year was 1919, and the world was on the brink of major technological advancements. In the heart of the Middle East, engineers and visionaries sought to revolutionize transportation on the winding, fast-flowing Tigris. The Hydroplane, an early hydrofoil, was the brainchild of those daring innovators. Its sleek, streamlined design was a marvel of engineering, with a hull that skimmed the water's surface and hydrofoils that lifted the craft above the waves. This design allowed the Hydroplane to reach impressive speeds, making it an ideal solution for navigating the Tigris's challenging waters. The photograph captures the Hydroplane in its element, its powerful engine churning the water behind it as it cuts through the waves. The crew, dressed in period attire, stand at the ready, their faces filled with a mix of excitement and concentration. The Tigris, once a major trade route, was now the testing ground for this new mode of transportation. The Hydroplane on the Tigris represents a pivotal moment in transportation history. It foreshadowed the development of hydrofoils and other high-speed watercraft that would come to dominate the seas and rivers of the world. This photograph is a testament to the ingenuity and determination of those early pioneers who dared to dream of a faster, more efficient way to traverse the world's waterways.
