EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative black-and-white photograph, Dr. E.S. Moult, left, is seen receiving the prestigious Royal Aeronautical Society Silver Medal from his predecessor, E.T. Jones, CB, OBE, FRAeS. The occasion took place during the 44th Wilbur Wright Lecture on 17 May 1956. Dr. Moult served as the President of the Royal Aeronautical Society from 1960 to 1961. The Royal Aeronautical Society, founded in 1866, is the world's oldest aeronautical society. Its mission is to encourage the science and practice of aeronautics by promoting education, research, and the dissemination of knowledge. The Silver Medal is one of the Society's most prestigious awards, recognizing outstanding achievements in aeronautics and astronautics. Dr. Moult's tenure as President came during a period of significant advancements in aviation technology. The 1950s and 1960s saw the dawn of the jet age, with the first commercial jet flights and the development of supersonic aircraft. Dr. Moult, an accomplished aeronautical engineer and researcher, would have been at the forefront of these exciting developments. E.T. Jones, a distinguished figure in his own right, served as the President of the Royal Aeronautical Society from 1956 to 1957. He is seen here presenting the Silver Medal to Dr. Moult, marking the passing of the baton to the next generation of aeronautical leaders. The image captures a moment of pride and accomplishment, as well as a sense of continuity and tradition in the world of aeronautics. The photograph is a testament to the enduring importance of the Royal Aeronautical Society in fostering innovation and advancing the science and practice of flight. It also serves as a reminder of the dedication and achievements of individuals like Dr. Moult and E.T. Jones, who have contributed significantly to the field of aeronautics.
