EDITORS COMMENTS
Sir Albert Hubert Roy Fedden (1885-1973), a pioneering figure in the field of aviation, is depicted in this photograph taken in 1973. Fedden, who was born in England, made significant contributions to the development of transport aircraft during his distinguished career. He served as President of the Royal Aeronautical Society (RAeS) from 1944 to 1945, during a pivotal period in aviation history. Fedden's passion for aviation began early in life, and he quickly gained a reputation as an expert in aircraft design. He joined the Royal Aircraft Establishment in 1919, where he worked on the design of military aircraft. In the 1930s, he turned his attention to transport aircraft and played a key role in the development of the Handley Page H.P.42 Hampden, which was used extensively during World War II for both military and civilian transport. During his tenure as RAeS President, Fedden oversaw the society's efforts to promote the advancement of aviation technology and safety. He was a strong advocate for the importance of research and development in the field, and worked to foster collaboration between industry, government, and academic institutions. This photograph captures Sir Albert Hubert Roy Fedden in later life, looking thoughtful and introspective as he gazes off into the distance. The background shows a line of planes, a testament to the progress that had been made in aviation during his long and influential career. Fedden's legacy continues to be felt in the aviation industry, and his contributions to the development of transport aircraft remain an important part of its history.
