EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the Bristol 170 Freighter Mk. 32 G-ANVS, belonging to British Air Ferries, in storage at Lydd Airport in June of 1969. The aircraft, with serial number 13252, exudes a sense of nostalgia and history as it sits silently awaiting its fate.
The Bristol 170 Freighter was a versatile and reliable aircraft that played a crucial role in post-war aviation. This particular model, G-ANVS, had an interesting journey before ultimately meeting its end in August of 1970.
As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back to a time when air travel was still relatively new and exciting. The sleek lines of the Bristol 170 Freighter evoke a sense of wonder and admiration for the engineers who designed such magnificent machines.
Despite its eventual demise, this aircraft will forever hold a special place in aviation history. Its presence at Lydd Airport serves as a reminder of the countless flights it undertook and the passengers it carried safely to their destinations.
The Peter Butt Aviation Collection has captured not just an image but a piece of our collective past with this stunning photo print. It is a testament to the enduring legacy of the Bristol 170 Freighter and all those who worked tirelessly to keep it flying through the skies.
