EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: A Smiling Air Scout Embraces the Thrill of Gliding in the 1960s, Lasham Gliding Centre, Hampshire, England. In this photograph from the 1960s, an Air Scout sits proudly in the cockpit of a glider at Lasham Gliding Centre in Hampshire, England. The young scout, dressed in his uniform, wears an expression of pure joy and excitement as he embarks on an unforgettable aviation experience. Established in 1946, the Air Scout Association, a part of The Scout Association in the United Kingdom, offers teenage boys and girls the opportunity to learn the skills of flying and aviation. This image, taken in 1963, captures the essence of the fun and adventure that comes with being an Air Scout during the 1960s. The village of Lasham, located in the East of England, has been a hub for gliding since the early 1900s and continues to be a popular destination for those seeking to learn the art of gliding and soaring through the skies. The young scout, with the support of his instructors, is on the cusp of an incredible journey that will broaden his horizons and instill a lifelong love for aviation. This photograph is a testament to the transformative power of scouting and the thrill of learning to fly a glider in the 1960s. (C)The Scout Association / Mary Evans From Mary Evans Prints Online.
