EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage print captures the elegant Fokker C. II G-CAEV, a three-seat airliner with a luxurious enclosed limousine style cabin behind the pilot's open cockpit. Owned by Brock & Weymouth - P.Q. O'Brien, this aircraft was first registered in Canada on 1 March 1925 and quickly became a symbol of sophistication and modernity in aviation.
The sleek design of the Fokker C. II G-CAEV exudes timeless charm, with its streamlined fuselage and classic propeller engine evoking a sense of nostalgia for the golden age of air travel. The image showcases the attention to detail in both form and function that defined early aircraft engineering.
Despite its glamorous appearance, this particular aircraft met with an unfortunate accident at Hamilton on 3 May 1928, serving as a reminder of the risks involved in pioneering aviation technology during this era.
Through this photograph from Mary Evans Picture Library, we are transported back to circa 1927 when air travel was still a novelty reserved for the elite few. The Fokker C. II G-CAEV stands as a testament to human ingenuity and ambition in pushing the boundaries of what was possible in flight.
