EDITORS COMMENTS
In this historic photograph, taken on 9 May 1914, aviation pioneer William Newell makes the first parachute descent in Britain from an aeroplane. Newell, dressed in a leather helmet and goggles, is seen exiting the Grahame-White Type 10 Charabanc, also known as the Aerobus, as he prepares to deploy his Calthrop Guardian Angel parachute. The Type 10 Charabanc, a transport plane used for carrying passengers and equipment, was chosen for this groundbreaking experiment due to its stability and reliability. The Calthrop Guardian Angel parachute, designed by British inventor Geoffrey Calthrop, was a significant improvement over earlier parachute designs. It featured a circular canopy and a unique automatic opening mechanism, which ensured a stable and controlled descent. Newell's successful parachute jump from an aeroplane marked a major milestone in aviation history and paved the way for further developments in parachute technology. The photograph captures the excitement and innovation of the early days of aviation, as brave pioneers pushed the boundaries of what was possible in the skies. With the Grahame-White Type 10 Charabanc providing the lift, and the Calthrop Guardian Angel parachute ensuring a safe and controlled descent, William Newell's daring leap into the unknown would go down in history as a landmark achievement. This photograph is a testament to the spirit of adventure and ingenuity that drove the early aviation pioneers, and serves as a reminder of the incredible advancements that have been made in aviation technology over the past century.
