VISUAL DESCRIPTION
The image offers us a glimpse into the industrial might behind de Havilland's contributions to aviation during World War II. It features workers operating a massive 2,000-ton hammer within the de Havilland Forge—a testament to human endeavor melding with machine strength. This powerful tool forged metal blades for constant speed propellers suitable for engines up to 3,000 horsepower. The photograph conveys both scale and intensity; men dwarfed by machinery work tirelessly, shaping tools of war that would ultimately propel their nation's aircraft across battle skies.
