EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: A Vintage Aviation Moment: The Beehive Terminal at Gatwick Airport in 1937. This photograph, taken in 1937, showcases an iconic moment in the history of aviation at Gatwick Airport. The beehive terminal building, a distinctive architectural landmark of the time, stands proudly in the background. This unique structure, with its rounded design and honeycomb-like appearance, was the first permanent building at Gatwick Airport, which initially served as a base for the British Air Ministry's Air Transport Auxiliary (ATA). In the foreground, a de Havilland DH86 Express Air Liner, registration number G-ADEA, gracefully glides past the terminal. This aeroplane, manufactured by de Havilland Aircraft Company, was a popular choice for both private and airline use during the 1930s due to its efficiency and versatility. Powered by two piston engines, it could reach impressive speeds for the era, making it an ideal aircraft for short-haul flights. The de Havilland DH86, affectionately known as the "DH86 Dragon Rapide," was a significant advancement in aviation technology, offering passengers comfort and convenience. Its sleek design and elegant lines are on full display in this photograph, as it flies effortlessly through the clear blue sky. This image not only evokes a sense of nostalgia for the golden age of aviation but also highlights the remarkable progress that has been made in air travel over the decades. The beehive terminal at Gatwick Airport, with its distinctive architecture, and the de Havilland DH86 Express Air Liner, with its innovative design, stand as testaments to the ingenuity and vision of the pioneers of aviation.
