Dh89 Dragon Havilland Hornet Moth Rapide
EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases a pair of classic British aircraft, the de Havilland DH89 Dragon Rapide and the de Havilland DH87B Hornet Moth, parked side by side against a serene backdrop. The Dragon Rapide, with its distinctive streamlined design and twin engines, was a popular transport aircraft produced by de Havilland between 1934 and 1946. It was known for its versatility, carrying up to 12 passengers or cargo, and its ability to operate from short runways. The Hornet Moth, on the other hand, was a single-engine, open-cockpit biplane that first flew in 1932. It was a favorite among private pilots and was used for both racing and record-breaking flights. The contrast between the two aircraft, with their distinct shapes and design philosophies, highlights the rich history of aviation and the evolution of aircraft technology. The photograph captures a moment of tranquility before these historic machines take to the sky once more, reminding us of the thrill and adventure that comes with aviation.
