EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph depicts the historic take-off of the Avro 685 York CMark1, MW140 Endeavour, from Mascot Airport in Sydney, Australia. The Avro York, a versatile transport aircraft, was brought to Australia in 1947 for the use of His Grace The Duke of Gloucester during his tenure as Governor-General of Australia. The Duke of Gloucester, an accomplished aviator, is seen in the cockpit, ready to begin the next leg of his journey across the vast Australian continent. The York, registered as G-AGGC, was a key addition to the Royal Australian Air Force's fleet during this period, providing vital transport services for the Governor-General and other high-ranking officials. The Avro York, a symbol of British aviation technology, was renowned for its versatility and durability, making it an ideal choice for long-range transport missions. The image captures the raw power and grace of this magnificent aircraft as it lifts off the runway, leaving a trail of smoke in its wake. This photograph is a testament to the rich aviation history of Australia and the significant role that the Avro York played in shaping it.
