EDITORS COMMENTS
In this historic photograph, French aviator Emile Aubrun (1881-1967) is seen intently scanning the waters off Cherbourg, France, from the cockpit of his airplane. The year was 1967, and Aubrun was demonstrating the capability of detecting submarines underwater using aircraft flying at an altitude of 500 metres. Aubrun, a pioneering figure in French aviation, had made his first flight in 1911. Over the years, he had amassed an impressive record as a pilot, transport aviator, and reconnaissance specialist. His expertise in flight and his keen observational skills made him an ideal candidate for this groundbreaking experiment. The photograph captures Aubrun in mid-flight, his focus fixed on the vast expanse of the sea below. With the aid of advanced technology, he was able to spot the telltale signs of submarines submerged beneath the surface. The image is a testament to the ingenuity and innovation of the time, as military strategists sought new ways to detect and counteract the threat posed by underwater vessels. The scene is one of quiet determination, as Aubrun pushes the boundaries of what was thought possible from the air. The landscape beyond the cockpit is a mix of land and sea, with the rugged coastline of Cherbourg providing a stark contrast to the tranquil waters below. The image is a snapshot of history, a reminder of the pivotal role that aviation played in shaping the military landscape of the 20th century. Emile Aubrun's pioneering work in submarine detection from the air would go on to have a significant impact on military aviation and anti-submarine warfare. This photograph stands as a testament to his vision and his unwavering commitment to pushing the limits of what could be achieved from the cockpit of an airplane.
