EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, taken by renowned aviation photographer G.H. Davis in 1935, captures a significant moment in the history of the Royal Air Force (RAF), as it underwent rapid expansion and modernization in the lead up to World War II. The RAF was poised to become Britain's first line of defence against potential threats, and this image showcases some of the representative types of the latest fighting and bombing machines that were being employed in the service at the time. In the foreground, a Handley Page Hampden bomber, with its distinctive RAF roundel emblazoned on the fuselage, sits proudly on the tarmac. The Hampden was a versatile aircraft, capable of both day and night bombing missions, and was an essential addition to the RAF's growing arsenal. Behind the Hampden, a line of aircraft is arranged, each one representing a different role within the RAF. A Hawker Hind, a biplane fighter, is shown, as well as a Armstrong Whitworth Whitley, a multi-engine transport and bomber plane. The Avro Anson, a training aircraft, is also visible, reflecting the importance of preparing pilots for the demands of modern warfare. The photograph provides a fascinating glimpse into the 1930s RAF, a time of great change and innovation in military aviation. With the ominous clouds gathering on the horizon, the RAF knew that it needed to be ready for whatever challenges lay ahead, and this image serves as a poignant reminder of the courage and determination of those who served in the RAF during the pre-war years.
