EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, we witness the Douglas-Fokker DC-2-115E PH-AKH, registration mark of Haan, gracefully approaching Croydon Airport for a landing. This historic aircraft, manufactured by the Dutch division of the American Douglas Aircraft Company, is a DC-2-115E with the manufacturing serial number 1354.14. The Douglas DC-2, a significant development in aviation history, was a twin-engine, 14-18 passenger transport aircraft that revolutionized air travel in the 1930s. PH-AKH, originally part of the Dutch national carrier KLM's fleet, was built in 1933 and later sold to Sweden in January 13, 1940, where it was registered as SE-AKE. The image transports us back in time, capturing the essence of aviation in the 1930s. The DC-2, with its sleek design and powerful engines, embodies the spirit of innovation and progress that characterized the era. The photograph's composition, with the aircraft framed against the backdrop of the airport and the surrounding landscape, adds to its visual appeal. The Douglas DC-2-115E PH-AKH, a testament to the rich history of aviation, continues to captivate us with its timeless beauty and historical significance. The image offers a glimpse into the past, reminding us of the remarkable journey that aviation has taken from its humble beginnings to the advanced technology we know today.
