EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: The Sole Survivor: The Armstrong Whitworth FK6, 7838 - A Pioneering British Bomber 2. Description: This image showcases the solitary presence of the Armstrong Whitworth FK6, 7838, a rare and historic aircraft that once played a pivotal role in the evolution of British aviation. The FK6, a two-engine biplane bomber, was designed and manufactured by the Armstrong Whitworth Aircraft Company during the interwar period. 3. Background: The Armstrong Whitworth FK6 was a response to the British Air Ministry's Specification 13/24, which sought a new bomber capable of carrying a 2,000 lb bomb load over long distances. The FK6, with its advanced features such as a fully enclosed cockpit, retractable landing gear, and a pressurized cabin, represented a significant leap forward in aviation technology. 4. Production and Service: Only one example of the Armstrong Whitworth FK6 was built, with construction commencing in 1931 and the first flight taking place in 1933. Despite its impressive design, the FK6 failed to secure any orders from the Royal Air Force due to its high cost and the emergence of more advanced designs. Consequently, the sole FK6, 7838, was used for various trials and tests before being retired in 1938. 5. Preservation: Today, the Armstrong Whitworth FK6, 7838, is the last surviving example of this pioneering British bomber. It is currently on display at the Royal Aviation Museum of Western Canada in Winnipeg, Canada, where it serves as a testament to the ingenuity and innovation of the early days of aviation. 6. Conclusion: This image of the Armstrong Whitworth FK6, 7838, offers a unique glimpse into the past, showcasing the groundbreaking design and historical significance of a remarkable aircraft that, despite its short production life, left an indelible mark on the annals of aviation history.
