1. Title: "The Second Prototype of the Westland Welkin, DG562/G: A Leap Forward in Aviation Technology The Second Prototype of the Westland Welkin, DG562/G, captured in this photograph, represents a significant milestone in the history of aviation. Designed and manufactured by the British aircraft company Westland Aircraft, this transport plane was a testament to the ingenuity and innovation of the mid-20th century. The DG562/G was a twin-engine, high-wing monoplane, which was developed to meet the requirements of the Royal Air Force (RAF) for a utility transport aircraft. The design featured a spacious cabin, which could accommodate up to 22 passengers or 4 stretchers and 12 medical attendants. The aircraft was also equipped with a rear loading ramp, making it ideal for cargo transport. The second prototype, as seen in this image, underwent extensive testing to evaluate its performance and handling characteristics. The aircraft's sleek design and advanced features, such as retractable landing gear and a pressurized cabin, set it apart from its contemporaries. The DG562/G was also known for its impressive range and endurance, making it a versatile addition to any aviation fleet. This photograph captures the second prototype of the Westland Welkin, DG562/G, in its prime, as it prepares for another round of testing. The image serves as a reminder of the groundbreaking advancements in aviation technology during the mid-1900s and the pivotal role that the Westland Welkin played in shaping the future of air transport.
