EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the de Havilland DH86 Express Air Liner, registration number EI-ABK, of Aer Lingus. The DH86, also known as the "Express," was a popular and versatile aircraft that first took to the skies in 1934. Its sleek design and advanced features made it a favorite among both private and commercial aviators. In this image, EI-ABK is seen taxing on the tarmac, its propellers spinning gently as it prepares for takeoff. The aircraft's distinctive silver and green livery, adorned with the shamrock emblem of Eire, adds to its charm and character. Aer Lingus, the national airline of Ireland, operated a fleet of these aircraft from the late 1930s until the late 1940s, making them an integral part of the company's early history. The de Havilland DH86 Express was a significant advancement in transport aviation, with a top speed of 175 miles per hour and a range of over 800 miles. It could seat up to 12 passengers in comfort, making it an ideal choice for both short and long-haul flights. The aircraft's advanced design and reliable performance made it a favorite among pilots and passengers alike, and it remains a cherished symbol of the golden age of aviation. This photograph captures a moment in time, a glimpse into the past when air travel was a thrilling and exciting adventure. The de Havilland DH86 Express Air Liner, EI-ABK Eire, of Aer Lingus, stands as a testament to the ingenuity and innovation of the aviation industry and the enduring allure of flight.
