1961: A Breathtaking Line-Up of Eleven English Electric Lightnings from 74 Squadron RAF at the Farnborough Air Show This photograph captures the essence of aviation history, as it showcases eleven English Electric Lightning jet fighters from 74 Squadron of the Royal Air Force (RAF), arranged in a perfect line-up after a dazzling display at the 1961 Farnborough Air Show. The English Electric Lightning, a iconic British-designed and manufactured supersonic interceptor, was a formidable force in the skies during the Cold War era. The year was 1961, and the Farnborough Air Show was once again the stage for showcasing the latest advancements in aviation technology. The eleven Lightnings, with their distinctive delta wings and powerful afterburning engines, stood proudly in a row, their sleek lines and vibrant markings a testament to the engineering prowess of the time. The pilots, having just completed their aerial ballet in the skies above, were no doubt basking in the applause and admiration of the large crowd that had gathered to witness their breathtaking performance. The English Electric Lightning was a versatile aircraft, capable of both interception and ground-attack roles. Its introduction into service marked a significant milestone in the RAF's history, as it was the first British-designed and manufactured aircraft to exceed the speed of sound in level flight. This photograph serves as a reminder of the innovation, courage, and skill that defined the early days of jet aviation and the RAF's rich heritage. This image, taken from Mary Evans Prints Online, is a must-have for aviation enthusiasts, historians, and anyone with a passion for the history of flight. The eleven English Electric Lightnings from 74 Squadron RAF, proudly displayed after their awe-inspiring performance at the 1961 Farnborough Air Show, are a testament to the past, present, and future of aviation.
