EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the General Motors TBM-3E Avenger, specifically the aircraft with the identification number F-AZJA (msn 2688, ex 85869). The TBM-3E Avenger is a twin-engine torpedo bomber and anti-submarine warfare aircraft, which was originally manufactured by Grumman for the United States Navy during World War II. General Motors took over production in 1945. The Avenger in this image appears to date back to circa 1991, as indicated by the lack of modern markings or modifications. The TBM-3E Avenger was a versatile and effective aircraft during its time, with a top speed of 175 miles per hour and a range of over 1,000 miles. It was equipped with a battery of weapons, including torpedoes, bombs, and machine guns, making it a formidable force in the skies. This particular Avenger, F-AZJA, was likely used for training purposes during its later years. The aircraft's worn paint scheme and lack of modern markings suggest that it had seen better days, but it still exuded a sense of power and history. The image captures a moment in time when the Avenger was still in use, a testament to its enduring legacy. The photograph is part of The Tony Lovelock Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, a vast archive of historical aviation imagery. It offers a unique glimpse into the past, showcasing the General Motors TBM-3E Avenger in its element, a reminder of the rich history of flight and aviation technology.
