EDITORS COMMENTS
In this black-and-white photograph, His Royal Highness Prince George, Duke of Kent (1902-1942), is seen preparing for an exhilarating departure from Yorkshire in 1934. The Duke, dressed in a stylish flying suit and donning a leather helmet, focuses intently on adjusting his parachute harness. The image captures the essence of the royal's adventurous spirit and his passion for aviation. Prince George, the third son of King George V and Queen Mary, was a keen aviator and held the rank of Air Commodore in the Royal Air Force (RAF). His love for flying began in the early 1920s, and he became an accomplished pilot, even setting a record for the longest non-stop flight in a biplane in 1926. In this photograph, the Duke is shown in the midst of an official visit to Yorkshire, preparing to leave for London by aeroplane. The image exudes a sense of anticipation and adventure, as the Duke readies himself for the journey ahead. The Duke's determination and focus are evident, as he meticulously checks his equipment before taking off. The photograph is a testament to the Duke's daring personality and his deep connection to the world of aviation. It also highlights the innovative spirit of the time, as aviation technology was rapidly advancing and becoming increasingly accessible to the public. The Duke's embrace of this new technology and his willingness to explore the skies made him a popular figure among the British public and solidified his place in aviation history.
