EDITORS COMMENTS
1964: A Royal Sight at the Farnborough Air Show - Royal Air Force Argosy C.1 XN857 This evocative photograph captures the majestic presence of the Royal Air Force (RAF) Argosy C.1 XN857 as it took to the skies at the 1964 SBAC Farnborough Air Show. Part of the RAF Transport Command, this impressive aircraft, manufactured by Armstrong Whitworth, was a mainstay of the RAF's transport fleet during the mid-20th century. The Argosy C.1, a versatile and powerful turboprop transport aircraft, was renowned for its ability to operate from short and unpaved runways, making it an invaluable asset for the RAF in various roles, including troop and cargo transport, and even medical evacuation. Its distinctive silhouette, with its high-mounted wings and twin tailfins, is a testament to the innovative engineering of the time. The 1964 SBAC Farnborough Air Show was an annual event that showcased the latest advancements in aviation technology. The RAF's participation was a highlight of the show, and the Argosy C.1 XN857, with its impressive capabilities, was a crowd-pleaser. The photograph captures the moment of takeoff, with the aircraft's engines roaring, as it ascends into the clear blue sky, leaving a trail of smoke in its wake. This photograph is a reminder of a bygone era in aviation history, when the Royal Air Force played a pivotal role in the development and deployment of advanced transport aircraft. The Argosy C.1 XN857, with its distinctive design and impressive capabilities, remains an enduring symbol of the RAF's rich aviation heritage.
