The image shows two Westland biplanes, PV-3 and PV-6, soaring high above the majestic peak, showcasing both the beauty of the Himalayas and the bravery of these early aviators.
The Marquis of Clydesdale's expedition to fly over Everest was a groundbreaking achievement that pushed the boundaries of what was thought possible in aviation at that time.
