EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the iconic Vickers Super VC10 aircraft, registration number G-ASGE, of the British Overseas Airways Corporation (BOAC) Cunard division, as it gracefully taxis along the tarmac at John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) on May 25, 1965. The Vickers Super VC10 was a versatile and advanced long-range, twin-engine, turboprop airliner, which first entered service with BOAC in 1962. This particular aircraft was a part of BOAC's prestigious fleet that connected Europe and the Americas, providing passengers with a comfortable and efficient means of air travel during the mid-1960s. The image captures the essence of aviation history, as the Vickers Super VC10 represented a significant milestone in the evolution of air travel, bridging the gap between propeller-driven and jet aircraft. The intricate details of the aircraft's design, from its distinctive winglets to the elegant BOAC livery, are on full display in this evocative photograph. As G-ASGE makes its way to the runway, ready to embark on its next journey, it serves as a reminder of the thrill and excitement that accompanied air travel during this era.
