This print captures the Hawker Siddeley HS.125-3B VH-ECF, prior to its delivery to Qantas, alongside the Short SC.9 XH132 weapons and radar test aircraft at Hatfield for a factory open day on June 25, 1966. The sleek design of the HS.125-3B VH-ECF is truly a sight to behold, showcasing the innovation and craftsmanship of aviation engineering during this era.
The juxtaposition of these two aircrafts highlights the advancements in technology and design that were taking place in the aviation industry at that time. The modified English Electric Canberra PR.9 serves as a testament to the versatility and adaptability of these flying machines.
As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back to a time when flight was still considered a marvel of human ingenuity. The excitement and anticipation surrounding the delivery of these aircrafts is palpable in every detail captured by Peter Butt's lens.
This print not only serves as a historical record of these remarkable planes but also as a reminder of how far we have come in our quest for exploration and discovery through flight. It is truly an homage to the pioneers of aviation who paved the way for future generations to soar to new heights.
