EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the Handley Page (Reading) H.P.R.1 Marathon aircraft, specifically registration number G-AMAY, in storage at Woodley prior to its conversion to the T.11 model. Circa 1951, this image offers a glimpse into the history of aviation and the evolution of aircraft design. Handley Page (Reading) was a British aircraft manufacturing company based in Woodley, Berkshire, renowned for producing innovative and advanced aircraft. The H.P.R.1 Marathon was a twin-engine transport aircraft, designed to meet the requirements of the Royal Air Force (RAF) for a medium-range transport aircraft. The aircraft in this photograph is seen in a quiet moment of repose, surrounded by the rustic charm of wooden storage structures. The Marathon's sleek lines and elegant design are on full display, with its distinctive twin-engine configuration and large cargo doors. The aircraft's wings are folded, revealing the intricate details of the engine nacelles and wing structure. The conversion of the H.P.R.1 Marathon to the T.11 model marked a significant milestone in the aircraft's life. The T.11 was a military training version, featuring a modified fuselage to accommodate additional seating and training equipment. This conversion allowed the Marathon to continue serving the RAF for many more years, making a valuable contribution to the country's aviation history. This photograph is a testament to the rich history of aviation and the innovative spirit of the Handley Page (Reading) company. It offers a unique perspective on the Marathon aircraft, capturing a moment in time as it undergoes an important transformation. The image is a must-have for aviation enthusiasts, historians, and anyone with an interest in the history of flight.
