EDITORS COMMENTS
Lady Victoria Pery, an aristocratic aviation enthusiast, is captured in this striking photograph as she experiences the thrill of a loop-the-loop flight with renowned French aviator Gustav Hamel at Hendon Aerodrome in 1914. The daring exploit, which took place during the early days of World War I, underscores Lady Pery's fearless spirit and her unwavering passion for aviation. The Sketch magazine hailed Lady Victoria as living proof that a Royal Feminine Flying Corps (R.F.F.C) should be formed, as women's involvement in the aviation sector continued to gain momentum. Her daring escapades in the skies defied societal norms and expectations, paving the way for future female aviators. Born into the peerage as the Hon. Victoria Pery, she later married Sir Thomas Brady, but her love for aviation remained constant. Tragically, Lady Victoria's life was cut short when she succumbed to the influenza epidemic in 1918. Her legacy, however, lives on as an inspiration to women who dared to defy conventions and soar to new heights. This photograph is a testament to a bygone era of daring exploits, societal transformation, and the indomitable human spirit. It serves as a poignant reminder of the remarkable achievements of Lady Victoria Pery, a trailblazing aviator whose influence continues to resonate in the annals of aviation history.
