EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in history when Aerofilms revolutionized commercial aerial photography. The image showcases an iconic DeHaviland DH50 plane, adorned with the distinctive Aerofilms livery, soaring through the skies. Built in 1923, this particular aircraft with registration G-EBFN played a pivotal role in aviation history. The photograph's origins remain shrouded in mystery as its date is unknown. Nevertheless, it exudes an undeniable sense of adventure and nostalgia. One can only imagine the awe-inspiring views that this biplane must have captured from above. Aerofilms' pioneering work paved the way for modern aerial photography techniques we take for granted today. This historic snapshot serves as a testament to their groundbreaking achievements and unwavering commitment to capturing our world from new heights. Notably, Sir Alan Cobham himself trialed this very aircraft and even emerged victorious in the prestigious 1924 Kings Cup Air Race – a testament to both his skill as a pilot and the capabilities of the DeHaviland DH50. As we gaze upon this remarkable image, we are transported back to an era where flight was still considered miraculous. It reminds us of humanity's ceaseless quest for exploration and innovation while honoring those who dared to push boundaries high above the clouds.
