EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the excitement and spirit of early aviation as biplanes line up at Hendon Airfield in North London, ready for the start of a cross-country race in 1913. The year was a pivotal moment in the history of flight, as the technology was advancing rapidly and the sport of aviation was gaining popularity. The biplanes, with their distinctive double wings, are a testament to the engineering prowess of the time. Each one is meticulously positioned on the grassy field, their engines idling quietly as the pilots prepare for the race. The pilots, dressed in leather helmets and goggles, exude a sense of determination and focus, their eyes fixed on the horizon. The airfield, which opened in 1913, was one of the first permanent airfields in the UK and played a significant role in the development of British aviation. It was the site of many record-breaking flights and was also used for military training during both World War I and II. The scene is reminiscent of the early days of motor racing, with the thrill of competition and the raw power of the machines on display. The simple beauty of the biplanes, with their wooden frames and fabric wings, stands in stark contrast to the sleek, high-tech aircraft of today. This photograph is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a unique perspective on the early days of flight and the passion that drove the pioneers of aviation.
