On the 10th of September, 1926, at Lympne Aerodrome near Southampton, Colonel Henderson piloted the ill-fated Missel Thrush during tests for Light Aeroplane Trials. The irony lies in the fact that his assigned pilot number was none other than thirteen. The image captures a somber scene as men work diligently to dismantle the wreckage of the crashed aircraft. Their expressions reflect both determination and concern, highlighting the risks involved in early aviation experimentation. Elegantly captured by E. Bacon from Topical Press Agency/Getty Images, this photograph transports us to an era when flying machines were still being perfected.

It pays homage to those brave individuals who fearlessly pushed boundaries despite facing unforeseen challenges along their journey towards progress. Whether you are an aviation enthusiast or simply intrigued by historical moments frozen in time, "Unlucky 13" is sure to captivate your imagination and spark conversations about human resilience and technological advancement throughout history.
