EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph from the archives, we find ourselves transported back in time to the idyllic setting of the 1938 Royal Aeronautical Society Garden Party, held at the Fairey Aviation Aerodrome on the Great West Road in Hayes, Middlesex. The serene atmosphere is filled with the gentle hum of aviation history in the making. In the foreground, we see Sir Harry Brittain, a renowned figure in British aviation, engaged in animated conversation with the Belgian Ambassador. Their attire, reminiscent of a bygone era, adds to the sense of nostalgia. In the background, the founder of Fairey Aviation Company, C.R. Fairey, can be seen observing the scene with a proud and satisfied expression. The Fairey Aviation Aerodrome, a hub of innovation and progress, played a significant role in the development of British aviation during the interwar period. The garden party, with its elegant attire and picturesque surroundings, serves as a testament to the camaraderie and collaboration that existed between aviation pioneers and diplomats during this time. The presence of Sir Harry Brittain, a key figure in the aviation industry, further underscores the importance of this event. Brittain was a pioneer in the field of aircraft design and manufacturing, having founded the Aircraft Manufacturing Company in 1915, which later became Aircraft Manufacturing, Assemblies, and Sales Limited (A.M.A.S.). His contributions to the aviation industry were significant, and his collaboration with C.R. Fairey and other aviation pioneers would lead to numerous advancements in aviation technology. This photograph offers a unique glimpse into a time when the future of aviation was being shaped by the collective efforts of visionaries and diplomats. The Royal Aeronautical Society Garden Party at Fairey Aviation Aerodrome stands as a testament to the spirit of innovation and collaboration that defined the aviation industry during the interwar period.
