EDITORS COMMENTS
A Coventry built Hawker Hunter F6A plane finds its new home at the Midland Air Museum, marking a significant addition to their prestigious collection. This iconic aircraft, constructed by Armstrong Whitworth in Baginton during the 1950s, served faithfully until just two years ago. Capturing a moment frozen in time on December 1st, 1986, this photo showcases museum member Ivor Welford as he steps into the cockpit of the Hawker Hunter F6A. With a sense of awe and admiration for this remarkable piece of military aviation history, Welford tries the cockpit for size, immersing himself in an era gone by. The image resonates with nostalgia and reverence for an era when these powerful jets ruled the skies. The preservation efforts undertaken by the Midland Air Museum are commendable as they strive to honor our past and educate future generations about our rich aviation heritage. This photograph is not just a snapshot; it encapsulates an entire chapter of British engineering excellence and military prowess from the twentieth century. It serves as a reminder that behind every artifact lies countless stories waiting to be discovered and shared. As we admire this stunning print from Memory Lane Prints, let us reflect upon how far we have come while cherishing those who dedicated their lives to shaping our aerial capabilities.
