EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures Lady Victoria Brady (nee Pery), the only daughter of the 4th Earl and Countess of Limerick, during an exhilarating aviation adventure at Hendon Aerodrome in 1914. Lady Victoria, a daring and determined young woman, was an ardent aviator who shared her passion for flying with the renowned French pilot, Gustave Hamel. In this image, she can be seen gracefully seated in the passenger seat of Hamel's aeroplane, her expression a perfect blend of excitement and concentration. The photograph is a testament to her fearlessness, as Hamel performed an impressive loop-the-loop maneuver not once, but five times during their flight. Tragically, Lady Victoria's life was cut short when she succumbed to the influenza epidemic in December 1918 at the tender age of 25. This photograph stands as a poignant reminder of her groundbreaking achievements as one of the earliest female aviators in history, and her enduring legacy as a trailblazer in the realm of aviation.
