EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the daring spirit of Samuel Franklin Cody, a pioneering Texan aviator, as he stands before his innovative creation, the Cody Cathedral. Born in 1867, Cody made history on September 18, 1908, when he became the first person to make a powered flight in the United Kingdom. The event took place at Farnborough Common in Hampshire, where Cody successfully piloted his biplane, the Cody II, for a distance of approximately 1,200 feet. The Cody Cathedral, also known as the Cody Monoplane, is a significant aircraft in aviation history. Designed and built by Cody himself, it was the first monoplane to be flown in the UK. The sleek, modern design of the monoplane marked a departure from the traditional biplanes of the time, and it showcased Cody's innovative approach to aviation. In this photograph, Cody is seen in front of the Cody Cathedral, exuding confidence and determination. The image captures the excitement and anticipation of the early days of aviation, when pioneers like Cody were pushing the boundaries of what was possible. The Cathedral, with its elegant curves and streamlined shape, stands as a testament to Cody's ingenuity and his place in aviation history. This photograph, taken in 1913, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the skies were still a new frontier, and the dreams of flight were just beginning to take shape. The image is a reminder of the courage and determination of pioneers like Cody, who dared to defy gravity and explore the boundless possibilities of the skies.
