In this evocative black-and-white photograph, Westland Lysander R9125 takes center stage at the Royal Air Force (RAF) Golden Jubilee held at RAF Abingdon in 1968. The Lysander, a versatile and iconic British aircraft, is shown taxying gracefully on the tarmac, its propellers churning up the ground as it prepares for its next flight. The RAF Golden Jubilee was a historic event marking the 50th anniversary of the Royal Flying Corps and the Royal Naval Air Service, the forerunners of the RAF, which was established in 1918. The celebration brought together a diverse range of aircraft from the RAF's rich history, including the Westland Lysander, which had seen active service during World War II. The Westland Lysander, a twin-engine, multi-role aircraft, was designed and built by Westland Aircraft Ltd. in the late 1930s. It was known for its short takeoff and landing capabilities, making it an ideal aircraft for special operations, including glider towing, reconnaissance, and air-sea rescue. R9125, in particular, was one of the last operational Lysanders to serve with the RAF, having been retired from service just a few years prior to the Golden Jubilee. This photograph captures the essence of the RAF's proud history and the enduring allure of aviation. The Westland Lysander R9125, with its distinctive silhouette and proudly displayed RAF roundel, stands as a testament to the innovation, courage, and determination of the men and women who have served in the RAF over the past century.
