EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning photograph captures the grace and elegance of the de Havilland DH89A Rapide, registration number OH-BLA, also known as Salama. The Rapide is a versatile and iconic aircraft, produced by the de Havilland Aircraft Company between 1934 and 1946. It was originally designed as a six-seat cabin monoplane for private use and training, but its versatility made it a popular choice for various roles, including passenger transport, mail delivery, and even military use during World War II. The Rapide's sleek design and powerful de Havilland Gipsy Major engine made it a favorite among pilots and aviation enthusiasts. The aircraft in this photograph, OH-BLA, was registered in the Netherlands and is seen here in flight, with its wings glistening in the sunlight and its propellers cutting through the air. The plane's distinctive rounded nose and streamlined fuselage are on full display, making it a true classic of aviation history. The Rapide's legacy continues to this day, with many still in operation and cherished by collectors and enthusiasts around the world. This photograph is a testament to the enduring appeal of the de Havilland DH89A Rapide and the thrill of flight that it continues to inspire.
