EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, Robert Herbert Whitby (1917-2015) is seen intently focused in the cockpit of a Bristol Mk 3A Sycamore helicopter, registration number G-AMWG, with the insignia of RMA Sir Gawain emblazoned on the side. The year is not specified, but the image exudes an air of the 1950s, a time when helicopter technology was still new and exciting. Robert Herbert Whitby was a British helicopter pilot who flew for various organizations, including the Royal Navy and British European Airways (BEA), but not the commercial BEA. He was known for his expertise in helicopter operations and made numerous contributions to the field. The Sycamore was a versatile and widely used helicopter during the post-war era, capable of performing various roles, including transport, search and rescue, and military operations. The cockpit of the Sycamore is a hive of activity, with a myriad of dials, switches, and levers, all essential for the safe operation of the aircraft. Whitby's expression suggests that he is fully immersed in the task at hand, ready to take off and explore the skies above. The photograph captures the essence of aviation in the mid-20th century, a time when the world was opening up to the possibilities of flight and the future seemed limitless. This photograph is a testament to the courage and skill of pilots like Robert Herbert Whitby, who helped shape the history of aviation. It is a reminder of the thrill and excitement of flying, and the important role that helicopters play in transporting people and goods to remote and inaccessible areas. The image is a valuable addition to any collection of aviation history or transport memorabilia.
