EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, the de Havilland DH89 Dragon Rapide, registration number VP-KCG, of Wilson Airways is seen gracefully parked at Nairobi Airport in 1938. The Dragon Rapide, a versatile and popular biplane transport aircraft, was manufactured by the de Havilland Aircraft Company in the United Kingdom. The image showcases the elegant design of the Dragon Rapide, with its distinctive green and white livery adorning the wings and fuselage. The aircraft's open cockpit, which seats two pilots, is a testament to the era of aviation when pilots took great pride in their craft and relished the thrill of flying. The Dragon Rapide was a favorite among private owners and flying clubs due to its ability to carry up to nine passengers in comfort. Its powerful de Havilland Gipsy Six engine provided the necessary power to ensure a smooth and efficient flight experience. Nairobi Airport, then known as Imperial Airways' East Africa Flying Boat Base, was a bustling hub of aviation activity in the late 1930s. The airport was a vital link in the Imperial Airways network, connecting East Africa to the rest of the world. The presence of the Dragon Rapide at Nairobi Airport underscores the importance of this remarkable aircraft in the history of aviation. This photograph captures a moment in time when aviation was still an exciting and adventurous pursuit, and the Dragon Rapide, with its sleek design and reliable performance, was a symbol of progress and innovation.
