EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we witness the dedicated efforts of Jim Titford, John Berkely, and Roger Smith of the Midland Aircraft Preservation Society. The trio can be seen carefully maneuvering a damaged wing from a De Havilland Rapide aircraft, while its fuselage rests on the ground behind them. With an upcoming appearance at the Coventry Air Festival in mind, these passionate volunteers are determined to replace the irreparable wing with a new set before the event commences. However, chronic storage problems have become an unexpected obstacle in their mission. Transported back to August 15th, 1973, we catch a glimpse into aviation history during this pivotal moment for both the Midland Aircraft Preservation Society and the beloved De Havilland Rapide plane. As they work diligently under clear blue skies and amidst other vintage aircraft displays at the midland air museum, their commitment to preserving these magnificent flying machines is evident. This snapshot not only captures their unwavering dedication but also serves as a testament to their love for aviation and desire to share it with others through events like air shows. Let us honor these unsung heroes who selflessly volunteer their time and expertise to ensure that future generations can appreciate our rich aviation heritage.
