EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the transformation of the Scottish Aviation Pioneer VL515, as it undergoes a significant overhaul to become the first Pioneer II, G-AKBF. The Pioneer, a groundbreaking design from the early days of aviation, was initially powered by a less-than-impressive engine. However, in this image, we witness the installation of a more powerful 520hp Alvis Leonides radial engine. This engine upgrade would prove to be a game-changer for the aircraft, enhancing its performance and capabilities. The meticulous process of re-engining is evident in the detailed image, with the Alvis Leonides engine taking center stage, dwarfed by the vast expanse of the aircraft's wings. The Pioneer II, G-AKBF, would go on to make a name for itself in the world of aviation, demonstrating the relentless pursuit of innovation and progress in this fascinating field. This photograph is a testament to the aeronautical engineering prowess of the past, and a reminder of the enduring allure of flight.
