EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from May 1968, three young men can be seen showcasing their sensational creation for the prestigious Royal Tournament at Earls Court in London. Determined to make a lasting impression, these ambitious individuals, who happen to be apprentices at the renowned Royal Aircraft Establishment in Farnborough, Hampshire, set out to create something truly extraordinary. Their invention had two essential requirements: it had to fly and it had to be cost-effective. The result? A remarkable flying bicycle that defied convention and captured the imagination of all who witnessed it. In this particular snapshot, we witness pilot Charlee Allesborough fearlessly soaring through the air on this unconventional contraption. To ensure stability during flight, the rear elevator is positioned downwards, effectively keeping the bike grounded when necessary. This ingenious design allows for both thrilling flights and safe landings. This photograph not only captures a moment of innovation but also reflects an era defined by exploration and experimentation. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity and our relentless pursuit of pushing boundaries. As we gaze upon this image from Memory Lane Prints, we are reminded of how inventive minds have shaped our world throughout history – forever changing what was once thought impossible into reality.
