EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the iconic Vickers VC10 K2, registration ZA143, as it gracefully touches down at RAF Brize Norton in the year 2000. Belonging to 101 Squadron of the Royal Air Force, this historic aircraft played a significant role in the RAF's transport fleet. The VC10, a versatile and advanced aircraft of its time, was known for its ability to operate from short runways and carry large payloads. The image captures the essence of the aviation industry's rich history, with the VC10's distinctive wing design and powerful engines creating an awe-inspiring sight as it descends onto the tarmac. The backdrop of RAF Brize Norton, a major military airbase in Oxfordshire, England, adds to the sense of importance and grandeur. The VC10 served the RAF with distinction for several decades, contributing to various missions and operations. Its retirement from RAF service in 2013 marked the end of an era for this remarkable aircraft. This photograph serves as a testament to the Vickers VC10's legacy and the vital role it played in the Royal Air Force's transport fleet.
