EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the de Havilland DH.2, registration number 5ja38, a classic biplane that graced the skies during the early days of aviation. The de Havilland DH.2, also known as the "DH Moth," was a two-seat biplane trainer and touring aircraft designed by Geoffrey de Havilland in 1922. Its distinctive open cockpit design and elegant lines made it a popular choice among pilots and aviation enthusiasts. The aircraft in this image appears to be in flight, with its wings outstretched and the propeller churning up a rooster tail of water behind it. The pilot, clad in a leather flying helmet and goggles, focuses intently on the horizon as his passenger, also wearing a flying helmet, looks on with a sense of excitement and wonder. The backdrop of open sky and scattered clouds adds to the sense of freedom and adventure that defined the early days of aviation. The de Havilland DH.2 was produced in large numbers, with over 9,000 built between 1922 and 1932. It was used extensively for training pilots during the interwar period and saw service in various roles, including airmail transport and even as a crop duster. Its legacy continues to be felt in the aviation world, with many examples still in existence today and cherished by collectors and enthusiasts. This photograph is a testament to the enduring appeal of the de Havilland DH.2 and the golden age of aviation.
