EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the golden age of aviation with this image from The Tatler, showcasing the De Havilland School of Flying at Hatfield Aerodrome in the early 1930s. The photographs reveal the school's impressive facilities, including the club buildings from a bird's-eye view, the spacious lounge and paved terrace overlooking the aerodrome, the cozy club room, a Gipsy Moth aircraft in flight, a lecture in progress, the modern kitchens, the restaurant, and the office. The De Havilland School of Flying, established in 1923, was a pioneering institution that played a significant role in the aviation landscape of the time. Situated in Hertfordshire, England, the school became a hub for aspiring pilots, offering instruction and lessons to thousands of airmen during the interwar period and, most notably, during World War II. The Gipsy Moth, a popular biplane manufactured by De Havilland Aircraft Company, is depicted in one of the photographs, soaring gracefully against the clear blue sky. The image captures the essence of the era, with its focus on adventure, innovation, and the spirit of aviation. The De Havilland School of Flying closed its doors in 1953, marking the end of an era in aviation history. This evocative photograph serves as a testament to the school's rich legacy and the excitement and wonder of early aviation.
