EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a flight of Avro training planes from the New Zealand Air Force School at Wigram as they embark on a practice flight at the beginning of World War II. The year is 1939, and the tension of the impending conflict is palpable in the air. The Avro planes, with their distinctive silhouettes and the New Zealand Air Force insignia proudly displayed on their wings, form a striking contrast against the clear blue sky. The pilots, clad in their flying gear, focus intently on their tasks, their expressions a mix of concentration and determination. This image offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the world was on the brink of change. It is a poignant reminder of the courage and dedication of the men and women who served in the armed forces during the 20th century's most devastating conflict. With its historical significance and vintage charm, this photograph is an invaluable addition to any collection of World War II memorabilia or archival records."
