EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the remarkable F. W. Goodden, a true pioneer of aviation. In this portrait, we witness the confident and determined expression on his face, reflecting the immense accomplishment he achieved on that historic day in 1913. Passing his airmanship tests with flying colors in a Caudron biplane at the prestigious Ewen School in Hendon, Goodden earned himself Aviators Certificate No. 506. Little did he know then that this achievement would mark the beginning of an extraordinary journey for him. Fate had something grander planned as he was destined to follow in the footsteps of none other than Geoffrey de Havilland himself, assuming the role of Chief Test Pilot to the Royal Aircraft Factory at Farnborough. The significance of this photograph lies not only in capturing Goodden's momentous achievement but also serving as a testament to his unwavering dedication and exceptional skills as an aviator. It symbolizes a pivotal point in aviation history when individuals like Goodden pushed boundaries and paved new paths for future generations. As we gaze upon this image today, let us be reminded of those fearless pioneers who dared to dream beyond what seemed possible at their time. Their courage and determination continue to inspire us all, propelling humanity towards greater heights in our quest for innovation and progress within aviation and beyond.
