EDITORS COMMENTS
This litho print captures a heart-stopping moment at Hendon Aerodrome in 1913. The image, created by Addison Thomas Millar, showcases the danger and excitement of early aviation. In this near accident, we witness a monoplane and a biplane coming perilously close to colliding mid-air. The scene is filled with tension as the two aircrafts seem to defy gravity, suspended in time for just a split second before disaster strikes. The skilled pilot of the monoplane desperately tries to maneuver away from the collision course while the biplane's pilot looks on anxiously. Hendon Aerodrome was an important hub for aviation development during this era, and this incident serves as a reminder of the risks involved in pioneering flight. It also highlights the bravery and skill required by these early aviators who pushed boundaries and defied conventional wisdom. The print beautifully captures not only the drama but also provides us with a glimpse into history. It transports us back to an age when flight was still new and uncertain—a time when every takeoff held both promise and peril. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of art, we are reminded of how far aviation has come since that fateful day at Hendon Aerodrome in 1913. It stands as a testament to human ingenuity, courage, and our unrelenting desire to conquer the skies.
