Created by an unknown photographer, this image is featured in Major Oliver Stewart's renowned book "The Royal Air Force in Pictures. " The Westland Lysander was manufactured by Westland Aircraft and served as an essential asset for the armed forces during wartime. With its monochrome aesthetic, this photograph transports us back to the 1940s, capturing the essence of aviation history. Major Oliver Stewart, a distinguished flying ace from World War I, curated this collection of images to provide insight into Britain's air force operations.
