EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, we find ourselves transported back in time to the 1960s, where two Druine D.31 Turbulent aircraft, registration numbers G-AREZ and G-APVZ (MSN PFA 561 and PFA 545), grace the tarmac. These sleek and agile planes, built by Rollason, showcase the innovative design and engineering prowess of the era. The Druine D.31 Turbulent was a two-seat, low-wing monoplane, designed for the general aviation market. Its distinctive turbulence suppressor wing, a feature that earned it its name, aimed to reduce the effects of turbulence on the aircraft during flight. The wing's unique design, along with its advanced construction methods, made the Druine D.31 a popular choice among private pilots and flying clubs. G-AREZ and G-APVZ, both proudly displayed in this image, are fine examples of the Druine D.31 Turbulent's elegance and sophistication. Their gleaming aluminum bodies and meticulously maintained finishes speak to the dedication and care of their owners. The planes' tail numbers, proudly displayed on their vertical stabilizers, add a sense of individuality and history to each aircraft. As we gaze at this photograph, we are reminded of a time when aviation was an exciting and innovative field, where groundbreaking designs like the Druine D.31 Turbulent pushed the boundaries of what was possible in the sky. This image is a testament to the enduring allure of aviation history and the remarkable machines that shaped it.
