EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, we find Flight Lieutenant G. Shaw proudly standing next to his British Klemm Eagle aircraft, registration number G-ACVU. The year is 1934, and the setting is the MacRobertson England to Australia Air Race, an historic aviation event that would test the mettle of both man and machine. The Klemm Eagle, a sleek and agile monoplane, was a popular choice among the participating pilots due to its excellent performance and reliability. With its streamlined design and powerful engine, the Klemm Eagle was well-suited for the long and arduous journey across continents. Flight Lieutenant Shaw, a brave and experienced aviator, had chosen this formidable machine as his mount for the race. His determined expression and confident stance speak volumes about his readiness for the challenge ahead. The MacRobertson England to Australia Air Race was no small feat, covering a distance of over 10,000 miles (16,093 kilometers) and requiring pilots to face extreme weather conditions, fatigue, and the ever-present danger of mechanical failure. The photograph captures a moment of anticipation and excitement as Shaw and his Klemm Eagle, G-ACVU, prepare to embark on this epic adventure. The MacRobertson England to Australia Air Race would go down in history as a testament to human endurance and the indomitable spirit of aviation. This image serves as a poignant reminder of the courage and determination of the pilots who took part in this remarkable event.
