EDITORS COMMENTS
This historic photograph captures Lieutenant Arthur Whitten Brown, navigator of the first direct transatlantic flight in 1919, during a later period of his life. Brown, born in 1886, served in the British Army before joining the Royal Air Force (RAF) as an officer. In June 1919, he embarked on an unprecedented aviation journey as the navigator to Captain John Alcock in the Vickers Vimy biplane, making history with the first non-stop transatlantic flight from Newfoundland to Ireland. Brown wears the uniform of an RAF officer, complete with cap, signifying his rank and military service. The image, taken in 1948, showcases the distinguished airman's aging yet proud demeanor, reflecting the passage of time and the significance of his groundbreaking achievement. The first direct transatlantic flight marked a pivotal moment in aviation history, demonstrating the potential for long-distance air travel and further fueling the public's fascination with flight. Brown's role as the navigator was crucial, as he ensured the team's safe passage across the vast Atlantic Ocean using celestial navigation and other navigational tools. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of Brown's remarkable contribution to aviation history and his enduring legacy as a pioneering figure in the field. The image, from the extensive collection of Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a unique glimpse into the life of this unsung hero and the era of early aviation.
