EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the intensity and focus of the Aircraft Firefighters School based at Stansted, Essex, in 1962. The school was renowned for training men and women from around the world in the vital skill of aircraft firefighting. In this image, a firefighter is seen driving a Bedford fire engine towards a burning aeroplane, the flames and smoke billowing high into the sky. The old aircraft were deliberately set ablaze to provide crews with realistic training opportunities, preparing them for the challenges they would face in their careers. The firefighter wears a protective helmet and focuses intently on the task at hand, the water hose coiled neatly at his side. The propeller of the burning plane spins slowly, adding to the sense of danger and urgency. This historical photograph transports us back to the 1960s, a time when the importance of aviation safety was being firmly established. The scene is one of wet streets, the smell of smoke, and the sound of roaring engines – a testament to the bravery and dedication of the firefighters who risked their lives to keep us safe in the skies.
