EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment of sheer power and elegance as a RAF Gloster Meteor NF. 14 of No. 264 Squadron takes off from Baginton airfield, ready to dazzle the skies with its flying display. The year is 1963, an era when aviation was at its peak, and this image perfectly encapsulates the spirit of that time. In the foreground, we see a Westland WS-51 Dragonfly HR Mk. 5 helicopter adding to the dynamic atmosphere on the tarmac. The juxtaposition of these two aircrafts showcases both their distinct roles in military operations - one soaring through the sky with incredible speed while the other hovers gracefully above ground. The nostalgic charm radiating from this photograph transports us back to a bygone era where warplanes ruled the skies and airfields were bustling with activity.

Arthur Cooper skillfully captured this moment, highlighting every detail from the buildings dotting Baginton airfield to the intensity on board each aircraft. As we gaze upon this print, our imagination takes flight alongside these powerful symbols of British aviation heritage. Whether you're an aviation enthusiast or simply appreciate historical photographs, this stunning print will transport you back in time to witness firsthand what it was like to witness these incredible machines take flight over Warwickshire's picturesque landscapes in England's West Midlands region during those glorious 1960s days.
