EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 1970s, where we find ourselves on board the majestic aircraft carrier HMS Ark Royal. The image showcases two powerful warplanes that were an integral part of the Royal Navy's Fleet Air Arm. In the foreground, a McDonnell Douglas Phantom FG1 (F-4K) from 892 Naval Air Squadron steals the spotlight with its sleek design and formidable presence. This fighter jet was known for its exceptional speed and agility, making it a force to be reckoned with in aerial combat. Beside it stands a Blackburn Buccaneer from 809 NAS, another iconic aircraft of the era. With its distinctive delta wing configuration and impressive payload capacity, this plane played a crucial role in naval operations. The deck of HMS Ark Royal serves as an awe-inspiring backdrop for these magnificent machines. As one gazes upon this scene, they can almost feel the energy and anticipation that filled the air during those days at sea. Photographer Freddie Cooper has masterfully captured this moment in time, immortalizing not only these extraordinary aircraft but also paying homage to all those who served on board HMS Ark Royal during August 1971. This print is a testament to the bravery and skill of both pilots and crew members who dedicated their lives to defending our skies. It serves as a reminder of their unwavering commitment to protecting our nation's freedom.
