EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, the last production Armstrong Whitworth Albemarle I, registration number V1599, stands proudly on the tarmac. This historic aircraft, built by the Armstrong Whitworth Aircraft Limited company in the United Kingdom, was the final iteration of the Albemarle I series, which began production in 1940. The Albemarle I was a versatile twin-engine transport aircraft, designed to meet the requirements of the Royal Air Force (RAF) for a medium-range transport and glider towing aircraft. It was powered by two Bristol Hercules engines, which provided the necessary power for the aircraft to carry out its various roles, including troop transport, cargo transport, and even as a maritime patrol aircraft. V1599, the last production Albemarle I, was an important aircraft in its own right. It was the prototype for the subsequent Short S.25 Sunderland Trading Islander (STI), which was a civilian conversion of the Albemarle I. The STI was designed to meet the demand for a civilian transport aircraft in the post-war era, and it proved to be a successful design, with over 150 being built between 1947 and 1954. Despite its significance as the prototype for the STI, V1599 itself never saw active service with the RAF. Instead, it was used for testing and evaluation purposes before being sold to a private owner in 1947. The photograph captures the aircraft in its prime, with its distinctive livery and imposing presence on the tarmac. It serves as a reminder of the important role that the Albemarle I played in the history of aviation, and the legacy it left behind in the form of the successful STI. This photograph is a testament to the rich history of aviation, and the important role that the Albemarle I, and specifically V1599, played in shaping the future of transport aircraft. It is a fascinating glimpse into the past, and a reminder of the innovation and ingenuity that drove the development of aviation technology during the 20th century.
