EDITORS COMMENTS
Alcock and Brown's Historic Vickers Vimy Airplane at Quidi Vidi Airfield, St. John's, Newfoundland This photograph showcases the legendary Vickers Vimy aircraft, piloted by John Alcock and Arthur Brown, as it stands proudly at Quidi Vidi Airfield in St. John's, Newfoundland. The image, taken in the early 1919, captures the essence of aviation history as it unfolds. The Vickers Vimy, a British-built biplane, made headlines when Alcock and Brown completed the first non-stop transatlantic flight from Newfoundland to Ireland on June 14, 1919. Their groundbreaking achievement marked the end of an era in aviation history, paving the way for longer and more ambitious flights. Quidi Vidi Airfield, located near St. John's, served as the departure point for Alcock and Brown's historic journey. The airfield, with its rugged terrain and harsh weather conditions, presented a formidable challenge to the aviators. However, they persevered, taking off on a cold and foggy morning, and successfully completing their record-breaking flight. This photograph is a testament to the courage, determination, and ingenuity of Alcock and Brown, as well as the advancements in aviation technology that made their achievement possible. The Vickers Vimy, with its sleek design and powerful engine, stands as a symbol of human progress and the spirit of adventure. As you gaze upon this image, imagine the excitement and anticipation that filled the air that day in 1919, as the world held its breath, waiting for news of Alcock and Brown's safe return. This photograph is not just a piece of history; it is a reminder of the power of human spirit and the boundless possibilities of aviation.
