EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Avro 707 (WD280) in Flight, SBAC Display Farnborough, 1951," showcases the Avro 707 research aircraft in its element during the Society of British Aircraft Constructors (SBAC) Display at Farnborough in 1951. The Avro 707, not to be confused with the commercial Avro 707 jet produced by Avro Anson Aircraft Limited, is a postwar research aircraft from the Royal Air Force (RAF) Museum's collection. The Avro 707, registered as WD280, is seen in mid-flight against a clear blue sky, its sleek and aerodynamic design evident as it cuts through the air. The aircraft's distinctive wingtip shape, which was a groundbreaking innovation at the time, can be clearly seen in this image. This design feature, along with its advanced engine technology, made the Avro 707 a significant aircraft in the postwar aviation landscape. The Avro 707 was primarily used for research and development purposes, with a focus on investigating the potential of swept-wing technology and jet engines. This photograph provides a glimpse into the past, showcasing the Avro 707 as it was put through its paces during the SBAC Display, a major event in the aviation calendar that attracted industry professionals, aviation enthusiasts, and the general public alike. The Avro 707's legacy continues to be felt in the aviation industry, with many of the design innovations it pioneered influencing the development of future aircraft. This photograph is a testament to the Avro 707's importance in the history of aviation and serves as a reminder of the groundbreaking research and development that took place in the postwar era.
