EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the daring spirit of Lieutenant John Cyril Porte (1884-1919) moments before his tragic accident during the Circuit of Britain air race in 1911. Porte, a British military officer and pioneering aviator, is seen standing confidently next to his monoplane, a Deperdussin. With goggles perched on his forehead and a determined look in his eyes, Porte embodies the thrill and excitement of early aviation. The sleek, silver monoplane, with its distinctive wing design and exposed engine, reflects the cutting-edge technology of the time. The Circuit of Britain was a grueling race that tested both the pilots and their machines to their limits, and Porte was a frontrunner, having set several speed records leading up to the event. However, during the race, Porte suffered a fatal crash near Bournemouth, Dorset, marking a tragic end to his promising aviation career. This image serves as a poignant reminder of the risks and rewards of early aviation and the indomitable spirit of those who dared to take to the skies.
