EDITORS COMMENTS
This historic photograph captures the iconic Vickers Vimy G-EAOU, the very plane that made aviation history by completing the first non-stop trans-Pacific flight from England to Australia in 1919. Piloted by the brave and determined duo, Ross and Keith Smith, this Vickers Vimy aircraft became a symbol of human achievement and the power of the human spirit. The image shows the plane, with its distinctive biplane configuration and distinctive green and red livery, standing proudly on the tarmac, ready for its next great adventure. The sun casts a warm glow over the plane, highlighting its sleek lines and intricate details. In the background, a crowd of onlookers gathers, their faces filled with awe and excitement as they bear witness to this remarkable feat of aviation. Ross and Keith Smith's epic journey began on November 12, 1919, when they took off from Hounslow Heath Aerodrome in England, bound for Darwin, Australia. The flight covered a distance of over 17,000 kilometers (10,600 miles) and took 27 days, 19 hours, and 50 minutes to complete. The pair faced numerous challenges along the way, including extreme weather conditions, mechanical issues, and limited supplies, but they persevered, making history as the first people to fly non-stop from Europe to Australia. This photograph is a testament to the courage, determination, and innovation of Ross and Keith Smith and their incredible achievement in aviation history. It serves as a reminder of the incredible feats that can be accomplished when one sets their mind to it and refuses to be held back by the seemingly impossible.
