EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to August 1964, capturing a moment in aviation history that is both awe-inspiring and bittersweet. The star of the image is the magnificent Aircraft BAC TSR2 supersonic fighter/bomber, designed specifically for the Royal Air Force (RAF). This cutting-edge aircraft was built with speed and power in mind, capable of flying at supersonic speeds while carrying out bombing missions. However, despite successful trials and immense potential, this groundbreaking project faced an unfortunate fate. The Labour government made the difficult decision to cancel further development of the TSR2. Nevertheless, this photograph showcases one of its test flights at Boscombe Down in Wiltshire. Accompanying this remarkable aircraft is another gem from British aviation history - an English Electric Lightning T4 serving as a chase plane for the development team. Together they form a striking formation against the backdrop of clear skies. It's worth noting that during its development phase, the BAC TSR2 shared costs with Concorde's Olympus engine project – highlighting its significance within Britain's aerospace industry during that era. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we can't help but marvel at these engineering marvels soaring through the air. Their sleek design and powerful presence remind us of an era when innovation knew no bounds.
