EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the Avro 652A Anson I of Dutch-manned No.217 Squadron RAF as it soars through the skies during World War II. The Anson, a versatile and iconic aircraft of the Royal Air Force, was primarily used for training pilots and aircrew, but also saw extensive service in various roles including coastal patrol and maritime reconnaissance. The Dutch-manned No.217 Squadron was formed in 1940, initially as a fighter squadron, but later re-equipped with Anson aircraft for maritime patrol duties. The squadron's Dutch crews played a crucial role in protecting the coasts of the United Kingdom from enemy attacks, particularly during the Battle of the Atlantic. The Avro Anson, with its distinctive silhouette and rounded wings, was a mainstay of the RAF fleet during World War II, serving in various theatres of the conflict. Its versatility and reliability made it an essential asset to the Allied forces, and it continued to serve in various roles with the RAF and other air forces long after the war's end. This photograph is a testament to the important role played by the Dutch crews of No.217 Squadron in the defense of the United Kingdom during World War II. The Avro Anson, with its timeless design and storied history, remains an enduring symbol of the courage and determination of the Allied forces during a pivotal moment in world history.
