EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, the sleek and elegant Hawker Siddeley HS-125-1A, registration CF-SDA (msn 25022), is seen gracefully parked at Prestwick Airport in 1965. The Hawker Siddeley HS-125, also known as the "Quiet Jet," was a British business jet aircraft that revolutionized the aviation industry with its advanced design and innovative features. The HS-125-1A, specifically, was the first production model of the Hawker Siddeley HS-125 series, which made its first flight in 1963. This particular aircraft, CF-SDA, was delivered to Canadian Airlines in 1965 and was operated by them for several years before being sold to other owners. The Hawker Siddeley HS-125 was renowned for its quiet and efficient Rolls-Royce Dart Mk 532-11 turbofan engines, which provided a significant reduction in noise levels compared to earlier jet engines. The aircraft's advanced design also featured a T-tail configuration, which improved stability and reduced drag. This photograph captures the Hawker Siddeley HS-125-1A in its prime, showcasing its distinctive lines and sleek appearance. The image transports us back in time to an era of aviation innovation, where the possibilities of private and corporate jet travel were just beginning to be explored. The Hawker Siddeley HS-125-1A, CF-SDA, remains an important part of aviation history, and this photograph serves as a testament to its enduring legacy. The image is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the world of business aviation as it was in the 1960s.
