EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases Major H. Hemming at the controls of Alan S. Butler's de Havilland DH37, G-EBDO, affectionately named Sylvia, during the 1923 Kings Cup Race. The DH37, a two-seat biplane, was a popular choice among aviators due to its versatility and reliability. In this thrilling competition, Sylvia soared to an impressive fifth place finish. The year was 1923, and the world of aviation was in its infancy, with pioneering pilots pushing the boundaries of what was possible in the sky. The de Havilland DH37, with its sleek design and powerful engine, was a testament to the ingenuity and determination of its creators and the daring spirit of its pilots. Major Hemming's skillful navigation and expert handling of Sylvia earned him a place in aviation history, as he brought the plane across the finish line with grace and precision. This photograph captures a moment in time when the future of air travel was being written, and the passion and excitement of early aviation was at its zenith.
