EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in 1941, captures a pivotal moment in the history of British aviation as members of The Royal Aeronautical Society Advisory Committee convene on the terrace behind No.4 Hamilton Place. The committee, appointed by the Ministry of Production, brought together some of the most influential figures in the field to provide expert advice on aircraft design and production during World War II. From left to right, we see Sir Arthur Gouge, Chief Designer of Short Brothers, Sir Ralph Sorley, AVM and CRD of the Ministry of Supply, Captain J.L. Pritchard, RAeS Secretary and Committee Secretary, T.P. Wright, a guest from the USA, Sir Stafford Cripps, Minister of Supply, Sir A.H. Roy Fedden, Chairman of the Committee, S. Camm, Chief Designer of Hawker Aircraft, R.K. Pierson, Chief Designer of Vickers, Dr L.A. Aitchison, Professor of Metallurgy at Birmingham University, and C.C. Walker, Chief Engineer of de Havilland Aircraft. The men in this photograph were instrumental in shaping the future of British aviation during a time of great need. Their collective expertise and collaboration played a crucial role in the development and production of aircraft that would help secure Allied victory in the war. The terrace at No.4 Hamilton Place served as a symbolic backdrop for this impressive gathering of minds, united in their commitment to advancing the science and technology of flight.
