EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative group portrait captures the young Frank Whittle and his contemporaries at the Royal Air Force College Cranwell in 1928. At the forefront of the image is Flight Lieutenant Frank Whittle (1907-1996), the pioneering British engineer and aviation pioneer, who is best known for his invention of the jet engine. Whittle's groundbreaking work on gas turbine engines began during his time at Cranwell, where he was a student at the time this photograph was taken. Surrounding Whittle are his fellow officers and cadets, all dressed in their smart uniforms and exuding a sense of youthful energy and determination. The setting, the grand halls of RAF College Cranwell, adds to the sense of history and tradition. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, providing a window into the lives of these young men during a pivotal moment in aviation history. The year 1928 was a significant one for Whittle, as he was working on his research into jet propulsion and had recently published a paper on the subject. This group portrait serves as a reminder of the important role that the Royal Air Force played in nurturing the talent of its officers and the pivotal role that Whittle would go on to play in the development of jet engines and aviation as a whole. This image is a valuable historical document that offers insights into the people and the context of one of the most transformative periods in the history of aviation.
