EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the early 20th century as we witness a groundbreaking moment in aviation history. The image showcases the awe-inspiring sight of a motorless helicopter being tested at St Cyr in France on June 23,1923. The Damblanc motorless Helicopter takes center stage, surrounded by a sense of anticipation and curiosity. To aid its ascent into the sky, an unconventional yet ingenious method is employed – a sausage balloon. This unusual combination of technology and innovation demonstrates the determination and resourcefulness of early aviators who were constantly pushing boundaries to conquer the skies. The monochrome aesthetic adds depth and intensity to this historic snapshot, allowing us to appreciate every detail with clarity. It serves as a reminder that even without vibrant colors, moments frozen in time can still captivate our imagination. This remarkable photograph was captured by Central News, showcasing their commitment to documenting significant events for future generations. As we gaze upon this image today, it serves as a testament to human ingenuity and perseverance in pursuit of flight mastery. Let us take a moment to reflect on how far aviation has come since that fateful day at St Cyr. From these humble beginnings emerged an industry that revolutionized travel forevermore – all thanks to pioneers like those depicted here who dared to dream beyond what seemed possible.
