EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the Neilson NC-1 Golden Bear, also known as the Coach NC883E, during its early days at Berkeley Airport in California. Built by the Neilsen Steel Aircraft Company in Berkeley, this 3-seat cabin monoplane made its first flight in 1929. Designed by Richard Korman, the NC-1 was a high-wing monoplane with a fabric-covered wingspan, powered by a 130hp Comet 7-D radial engine. The sleek and stylish design of the NC-1 quickly turned heads, making it a popular attraction at air shows and aviation events. The NC-1, registered as X883E at the time of this photograph, was a testament to the ingenuity and innovation of the early aviation industry. However, its tenure in the skies was short-lived. In August 1939, during a thrill show at Oakland Speedway, the NC-1's performance failed to meet the expectations of the crowd, leading to an angry reaction that ultimately resulted in the destruction of the aircraft. Despite this unfortunate end, the Neilson NC-1 Golden Bear remains an important part of aviation history, representing the spirit of adventure and progress that defined the early days of flight.
