EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "G-ABYX: The Handley Page Clive III's Journey from Prototype to Flying Circus Star" This photograph showcases the Handley Page Clive III, registration number G-ABYX, during its tenure with Sir Alan Cobham's National Aviation Day flying circus in the 1930s. Originally, this aircraft was one of the Hinaidi I prototypes, J9126, built using a W.10 fuselage as a transport design. However, it was later converted to become the sole Clive III, though it did not enter service as such. In its new role with Sir Alan Cobham's flying circus, the Clive III was named "Youth of Australia" and later renamed "Astra." The aircraft, which dates back to circa 1935, was an essential part of the aerial spectacle that thrilled audiences across the country. The Handley Page Clive III, designed by the British aircraft manufacturer Handley Page, was a versatile aircraft that could be used for both passenger and cargo transport. Its unique design, featuring a cantilever wing and a streamlined fuselage, made it an innovative addition to the skies of the 1930s. Despite not officially entering service as a Clive III, G-ABYX's conversion for use in the flying circus marked an important chapter in its history. This photograph captures the essence of aviation in the 1930s, showcasing the excitement and innovation that came with the dawn of air travel and aerial entertainment. This image, courtesy of Mary Evans Picture Library from Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the skies were a new frontier and the possibilities seemed endless.
