EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the moment of exhilaration and determination in the eyes of French aviator Jean Gobron as he takes the controls of his Voisin biplane in 1909. The image finds Gobron seated in the pilot's seat, or "poste de direction," of this historic aircraft, which was one of many Voisin biplanes built that year. Gobron's Voisin saw action at both Mourmelon and Reims airfields, as the burgeoning aviation industry continued to push the boundaries of flight. The Voisin biplane, with its distinctive wings and open-cockpit design, represented the latest advancements in aviation technology at the turn of the century. Gobron's intrepid spirit and unwavering focus are palpable as he prepares for takeoff, with the wind whipping through his hair and the engine roaring in the background. The photograph offers a rare glimpse into the early days of flight, when pioneering aviators like Gobron dared to defy gravity and explore the limitless skies above. This image is a testament to the courage and innovation of the early aviation pioneers, who paved the way for the modern aviation industry. It is a poignant reminder of the thrill and excitement that comes with pushing the boundaries of human achievement and the enduring allure of the open sky.
