EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the grace and elegance of the de Havilland DH95 Flamingo, registration number G-AFYH, as it soars through the clear blue sky. The DH95 Flamingo, a British single-engine, open-cockpit biplane, was designed and manufactured by de Havilland Aircraft Company between 1934 and 1938. This particular aircraft is a testament to the company's engineering prowess and its commitment to producing high-quality aircraft for both civilian and military use. The Flamingo's distinctive design, with its streamlined fuselage and large, rounded wings, was inspired by the RAF's need for a light transport aircraft capable of carrying six passengers and a pilot. The resulting aircraft was not only an impressive performer in the skies but also a popular choice among private owners and flying clubs. G-AFYH, with its striking red and white livery, is a prime example of the Flamingo's timeless appeal. Its open cockpit allows the pilot and passengers to fully immerse themselves in the flying experience, with the wind in their hair and the sound of the engine roaring in their ears. The aircraft's wings are adorned with the distinctive "Flying Flea" insignia, a nod to the Flamingo's nickname and its reputation as a versatile and agile aircraft. This photograph captures a moment in time, a snapshot of history, as the Flamingo glides effortlessly through the sky, leaving a trail of vapor in its wake. It is a reminder of the romance and adventure of aviation, a testament to the ingenuity and creativity of the human spirit, and a tribute to the enduring legacy of the de Havilland DH95 Flamingo.
