EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph captured by H. F. Davis, we are transported back to the 29th of June, 1928 at Hendon for the Air Pageant in England. The image showcases a remarkable sight that defies conventional aircraft design - the Pterodactyl, a tailless plane standing proudly in front of a colossal troop carrier. The juxtaposition between these two aircrafts is awe-inspiring; on one hand, we have the sleek and innovative Pterodactyl with its unconventional tailless structure, resembling an ancient creature from prehistoric times. On the other hand, towering behind it stands a giant troop carrier exuding strength and power. This photo encapsulates not only technological advancements but also highlights the spirit of innovation and daring exploration that characterized aviation during this era. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity and our relentless pursuit of pushing boundaries. Hendon's Air Pageant was undoubtedly an event where aviation enthusiasts gathered to witness groundbreaking feats in flight. This particular moment frozen in time captures both excitement and curiosity surrounding these extraordinary flying machines. As we gaze upon this historical snapshot today, let us appreciate how far we have come since then while acknowledging those who fearlessly paved the way for modern aviation as we know it today.
