EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, the sleek and innovative Boeing 247D, registration number G-ADSK, is parked outside at RAF Mildenhall in England, just two days before the commencement of the Macrobertson Air Race in 1934. The image captures the essence of the aviation boom of the 1930s, as this piston-powered airliner, piloted by the renowned Colonel Roscoe Turner, prepares to take on the challenge of the long-distance race. The Boeing 247D, a civil variant of the Boeing 247, was a significant advancement in aviation technology at the time. Its streamlined design, advanced engineering, and impressive performance made it a favorite among both pilots and passengers. This particular aircraft, owned by the British company, MacRobertson Helicopters and Airways Limited (MHZ), was one of only a few Boeing 247Ds in Europe. The photograph, taken at RAF Mildenhall in Suffolk, England, showcases the aircraft's distinctive features, including its elegant lines, large wingspan, and the distinctive "Boeing" logo emblazoned on the fuselage. The image also provides a glimpse into the bustling activity of the airfield, with other aircraft and support vehicles visible in the background. The Macrobertson Air Race, also known as the England to Australia Air Race, was a historic event in the annals of aviation history. The race, which took place from March 19 to April 1, 1934, attracted a number of high-profile pilots and aircraft from around the world. The Boeing 247D, with its advanced design and powerful engines, was a formidable contender in the race, and Colonel Roscoe Turner and his crew were determined to make history. This photograph, a fascinating snapshot of aviation history, not only captures the excitement and anticipation of the Macrobertson Air Race but also serves as a testament to the ingenuity and innovation of the aviation industry in the 1930s.
