EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the De Havilland DH50J, a historic aircraft that holds a significant place in the annals of aviation history as the first plane to bear the Qantas livery. Produced by De Havilland, this four-seater aircraft was a marvel of engineering during the 1920s, with a total of 38 units produced, 17 of which were manufactured by De Havilland. The DH50J made its maiden flight on July 30, 1923, and is depicted here in a ground side view, likely from around 1925. The plane's sleek design and elegant lines are on full display, as it sits quietly on the tarmac, waiting for its next adventure. The De Havilland DH50J represents an important chapter in the history of both De Havilland and Qantas, as it was the biggest user of this particular model. This photograph offers a unique glimpse into the past, transporting us back to an era of innovation and exploration in the world of flight.
