EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the Nord 1101 Pingouin, registration number G-ATJW (msn 167), at Shoreham Airport during the late 1960s. The Nord 1101 Pingouin is an intriguing post-war French development and production of the Messerschmitt Me 208, a versatile and innovative aircraft that was originally designed by the German engineer Fritz Fauré in the 1930s. The Me 208, also known as the Blasius-Bleriot or the Messerschmitt Bubble, was a pioneering design for its time, featuring a unique fuselage shape and a distinctive canopy that offered exceptional visibility for the pilot. The Nord 1101 Pingouin was an improved version of the Me 208, with updated engines and avionics, making it a popular choice among private pilots and aviation enthusiasts. The Nord 1101 Pingouin in this photograph, with its distinctive red and white livery, is seen taxing at Shoreham Airport, a well-known airfield located on the south coast of England. The image captures the essence of the golden age of aviation, with the plane's sleek lines and graceful curves contrasting beautifully with the rugged terrain of the airport. The Nord 1101 Pingouin was a remarkable aircraft that represented the best of post-war French aeronautical engineering. Its legacy continues to inspire aviation enthusiasts and collectors, making this photograph a valuable addition to any aviation collection.
