EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the iconic de Havilland DH60G Gipsy Moth, registration number G-aWO, as it gracefully soars through the sky. The DH60G, also known as the Gipsy Moth, is a two-seat, open-cockpit biplane that was first flown in 1931 and became a popular choice among private pilots due to its affordability and ease of handling. The image captures the essence of aviation in the early 20th century, with the plane's wings casting intricate shadows on the ground below and the pilot and passenger appearing focused and exhilarated by the experience. The Gipsy Moth's distinctive round fuselage and fabric-covered wings are on full display, making it an instantly recognizable aircraft. The Gipsy Moth was designed by R.J. Mitchell, who later went on to create the legendary Supermarine Spitfire fighter plane. This aircraft was an important part of the golden age of aviation, and its timeless design continues to inspire pilots and aviation enthusiasts to this day. This photograph is a testament to the romance and adventure of flying, and transports us back to a time when the skies were a new frontier for exploration and discovery. The DH60G Gipsy Moth, G-aWO, remains an enduring symbol of aviation history and a reminder of the thrill and freedom that comes with taking to the skies.
