EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the Desoutter II, registration number OY-DOD, during the MacRobertson England to Australia Air Race of October 1934. The Desoutter II was piloted by the brave and determined team of Lieutenant M. Hansen and D. Jensen. This historic aviation event marked the first trans-Australian air race, with the goal of establishing a record time for the long-distance flight between England and Australia. The Desoutter II, a sleek and powerful aircraft, was a de Havilland Gipsy Moth biplane, known for its versatility and reliability. With its open cockpit and fabric-covered wings, the Desoutter II embodied the spirit of adventure and innovation that defined the early days of aviation. The MacRobertson England to Australia Air Race was a grueling test of endurance and skill, with the teams facing challenging weather conditions and long hours in the cockpit. The Desoutter II, piloted by Hansen and Jensen, braved the harsh conditions and completed the race, making history as one of the successful competitors. This photograph captures the Desoutter II in mid-flight, with the sun casting dramatic shadows on its wings and the open sky stretching out behind it. The determination and focus of the pilots are evident in their expressions, as they navigate the vast expanse of the Australian outback. This image is a testament to the courage and determination of the early aviators who pushed the boundaries of what was possible in the realm of air travel.
