EDITORS COMMENTS
In this stereo pair photograph from circa 1928, we witness a group of RRG Prufling gliders prepared for an exhilarating bungee launch. The image, sourced from Mary Evans Picture Library, transports us back in time to an era of innovation and adventure in the realm of aviation. RRG, or Rhein-Ruhr-Gesellschaft, was a German aircraft manufacturing company that produced a variety of aircraft, including these unique Prufling gliders. Gliders, also known as unpowered aircraft, rely on the natural lift generated by the shape of their wings to stay aloft. In this photograph, we can see the pilots and ground crew meticulously preparing for the bungee launch of these fascinating gliders. The gliders are positioned on the grassy field, with their wings spread wide and their tails raised. The pilots, dressed in leather helmets and goggles, are seen adjusting the wing flaps and checking their harnesses. In the background, we can see other gliders already airborne, soaring gracefully against the clear blue sky. The ground crew, dressed in workman's overalls, are busy securing the bungee cords to the gliders. These cords would provide the initial thrust, launching the gliders into the air. The anticipation is palpable as the team readies themselves for the launch. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of early aviation, where innovation, excitement, and the spirit of adventure were the driving forces behind the development of new technologies. The RRG Prufling gliders, with their unique design and bungee launch method, represent an important chapter in the history of flight.
