EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the Fokker FVIIa, registration number G-EBTS, affectionately known as "The Spider," during its historic flight from Europe to Cape Town, South Africa, and back in just 20 days. Piloted by the brave and tenacious Captain C.D. Barnard, this aircraft defied the odds and proved the enduring spirit of aviation. The Fokker FVIIa, a three-engine biplane, was a popular choice for long-distance flights during the early era of aviation. Its distinctive design, featuring a wooden fuselage and open cockpit, exudes a sense of adventure and daring. The name "The Spider" was fitting, as the biplane's intricate network of wires and struts resembled the legs of a spider. Captain Barnard's daring journey began in Europe and took him across the vast expanse of the Mediterranean Sea, the Red Sea, and the Indian Ocean. The harsh conditions of the African continent presented numerous challenges, from extreme temperatures to treacherous terrain. Despite the obstacles, Barnard's determination and skillful piloting saw him through, making him a hero in the aviation community. The return journey was equally arduous, with Barnard facing headwinds, mechanical issues, and the ever-present danger of running out of fuel. But, with unwavering resolve, he successfully navigated the aircraft back to Europe, completing the round-trip in an impressive 20 days. This photograph serves as a testament to the courage and ingenuity of early aviators like Captain Barnard, who pushed the boundaries of what was thought possible in the realm of air travel. The Fokker FVIIa, G-EBTS, "The Spider," remains an iconic symbol of the early days of aviation and a reminder of the indomitable human spirit that drives us to explore new frontiers.
