EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph from the archives, a de Havilland DH60 Moth, believed to be the registration G-EBLV, takes center stage at the 50 Years of Flying Display held at Hendon in 1951. The Moth, a classic biplane design, was a popular choice among private pilots and flying clubs during the interwar period and beyond. Its open cockpit, fabric-covered wings, and distinctive rounded fuselage made it an instantly recognizable sight in the skies. The 50 Years of Flying Display was a celebration of aviation history, showcasing a diverse range of aircraft types and eras. The Moth's inclusion in this event underscores its enduring appeal and significance in the annals of aviation history. The image captures the plane in a moment of graceful flight, with the sun casting a warm glow over its wings and the crowd below looking on in awe. The de Havilland DH60 Moth was a versatile aircraft, capable of both touring and training duties. Its open cockpit design allowed for a more direct flying experience, making it an ideal choice for those seeking the thrill of open-air flight. The Moth's popularity continued well into the post-war era, with many still in use today as vintage aircraft and for aerobatic displays. This photograph is a testament to the enduring allure of aviation history and the timeless beauty of the de Havilland DH60 Moth. The image transports us back to a bygone era, a time when the skies were filled with the sound of roaring engines and the thrill of flight was a dream within reach for many.
