EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Mary Evans Picture Library transports us back to the year 1911, a time when aviation was still in its infancy. The image depicts a fascinating concept known as "Aiding Location," where the roofs and walls of buildings in various locations were painted in distinctive colors to help aviators navigate and know their whereabouts.
In this historical snapshot, we see a fantasy-like scene with colorful buildings standing out against the backdrop of clear blue skies. The vibrant hues on the structures not only add an element of whimsy to the landscape but also serve a practical purpose for those soaring through the air.
Imagine being a pilot in 1911, relying on these painted landmarks to guide you safely to your destination. It's truly remarkable how such simple yet innovative ideas were used to assist transport and ensure smooth journeys for early aviators.
