EDITORS COMMENTS
In this historic photograph, three Bristol Sycamore helicopters of British European Airways (BEA) are seen taking off from London Airport, marking the inauguration of a scheduled passenger service between Southampton (Eastleigh Airport), London, and Northolt. The trio of helicopters consists of one Mk3 and two Mk3As, all embodying the sleek and innovative design that made the Sycamore a pioneering aircraft in its time. The Sycamore helicopters were a significant addition to the British aviation landscape, offering a new mode of transport that was faster and more convenient than traditional rail or road travel. This service, which began in the late 1940s or early 1950s (exact date unknown), provided a cost-effective alternative for passengers traveling between Southampton, London, and Northolt. Fares were set at an affordable 30 shillings for a single trip and 20 shillings and 10 pence for a monthly return. The Sycamore helicopters, with their distinctive rotor blades and streamlined bodies, were a sight to behold as they took off from London Airport. Their ability to fly at high altitudes and cover long distances made them an ideal choice for the scheduled passenger service. This photograph captures the excitement and innovation of the early days of helicopter transport, as these versatile aircraft began to revolutionize the way people traveled across Europe. British European Airways' Sycamore helicopters paved the way for the widespread use of helicopters in passenger transport, demonstrating their potential as efficient, reliable, and convenient modes of travel. This photograph is a testament to the ingenuity and vision of the aviation industry during this period, as it embraced new technologies and pushed the boundaries of what was possible in air travel.
