EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment in history as members of the newly formed Royal Flying Corps (RFC) salute during a ceremony in 1914. The RFC was established on April 13, 1912, as a separate military aviation branch of the British Armed Forces, marking the beginning of the British military's formal involvement in aviation. The image showcases the smartly dressed officers and men, all clad in their distinctive RFC uniforms, each holding their right hand to their forehead in a military salute. The men appear focused and determined, reflecting the importance of their role in the burgeoning field of military aviation. In the background, a biplane sits ready for takeoff, a testament to the technological advancements of the time and the Corps' commitment to innovation. The aircraft, with its wings spread wide, symbolizes the Corps' readiness to take to the skies and defend their country. The photograph offers a glimpse into the early days of military aviation and the bravery of those who took to the skies to serve their country during a time of war. This poignant image is a reminder of the significant role the Royal Flying Corps played in the history of the British military and the world at large.
