EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "A Royal-Navy Hero in the Sky: Captain Eric Melrose Winkle Brown's Westland Wyvern TF-2 in Flight over the Sea" 2. Description: This photograph captures the moment when the fearless Royal-Navy test-pilot, Captain Eric Melrose Winkle Brown, CBE, DSC, AFC, RN, soars above the tranquil waters in his Westland Wyvern TF-2 during the 1950s. Born on January 21, 1919, Winkle Brown was an accomplished aviator who dedicated his career to the Royal Navy's Fleet Air Arm. In this image, we witness the grace and power of the Wyvern TF-2 as it cuts through the air, leaving a vapor trail in its wake. The aircraft's distinctive features are on full display, including its twin engines, large propellers, and the distinctive intake on the port side. The sea below shimmers in the sunlight, adding an element of serenity to the scene. 3. Background: The Westland Wyvern TF-2 was a British carrier-borne attack aircraft used extensively by the Royal Navy's Fleet Air Arm during the post-World War II era. Powered by two Rolls-Royce Dart Mk 3 engines, the Wyvern was capable of reaching speeds of over 350 miles per hour. Its versatility made it a valuable asset for the Royal Navy, as it could be used for various roles, including anti-ship strikes, reconnaissance, and even as a target tug. Winkle Brown was a pioneering test-pilot who made significant contributions to the development of the Wyvern and other aircraft. His daring exploits and achievements earned him numerous accolades, including the Distinguished Service Cross and the Air Force Cross. 4.
