EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the sleek lines and powerful presence of a Messerschmitt Bf 109b, a iconic fighter aircraft of the German Luftwaffe during the interwar period. Taken in Zurich in 1937, the image offers a rare glimpse into the history of military aviation as the world teetered on the brink of war. The Messerschmitt Bf 109, designed by the brilliant German engineer Willy Messerschmitt, was a formidable opponent in the skies. Its advanced design, including a closed cockpit, retractable landing gear, and a powerful DB 601 engine, set new standards for fighter aircraft performance. The Bf 109b, specifically, was the second production variant of the Bf 109 series and was the mount of many German aces during the early years of World War II. In this photograph, the Bf 109b sits proudly on the tarmac, its wings gleaming in the sunlight. The aircraft's distinctive inverted gull-wing design and swastika insignia are clearly visible, a stark reminder of the political climate of the time. The image is a testament to the engineering prowess and military might of the German air force in the years leading up to the Second World War. The photographer, Charles E. Brown, was a British officer in the Royal Air Force (RAF) during this period. He was a keen photographer and documented many aspects of military aviation, including the development and deployment of new aircraft. This photograph, now part of the collection at the RAF Museum, offers a unique perspective on the history of military aviation and the build-up to the Second World War.
