EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative black-and-white photograph, three RAF (Royal Air Force) Armstrong Whitworth AW660 Argosy C.Mk1 transport planes stand proudly on the tarmac, their powerful engines idling quietly in the background. The Argosy, a versatile and iconic aircraft designed by the Armstrong Whitworth Aircraft Company, was a mainstay of the RAF's transport fleet during the second half of the 20th century. The Argosy C.Mk1, specifically, was a military version of the Argosy airliner, capable of carrying large payloads and long ranges. The three planes in this image, with their distinctive hump-backed fuselages and winglets, are a testament to the RAF's commitment to maintaining a robust and versatile transport fleet. The registration numbers of the planes are visible in this photograph, with XN847 being the most prominent. The Argosy with the registration XN847 served in the RAF from 1968 to 1993, during which time it played a crucial role in transporting troops, cargo, and even paratroops to various destinations around the world. The Argosy's versatility and ruggedness made it a popular choice for the RAF, and it saw action in various conflicts and humanitarian missions. This photograph captures a moment in time when these magnificent machines, emblematic of the RAF's rich aviation history, were ready for their next mission. The Argosy C.Mk1s, including XN847, were an essential part of the RAF's transport fleet, and their presence on the ramp is a reminder of the vital role they played in the organization's history. This photograph is a testament to the enduring legacy of the Armstrong Whitworth AW660 Argosy C.Mk1s and the RAF's commitment to maintaining a robust and versatile transport fleet.
