EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph from the archives, two iconic Percival aircraft take center stage at a Royal Aeronautical Society (RAeS) garden party in 1939. The foreground is dominated by the sleek and agile Percival E2 Mew Gull, registration number G-AFa, with its distinctive open cockpit and graceful wings. The Mew Gull was a popular biplane design, known for its versatility and ease of handling, making it a favorite among both private pilots and flying clubs. In the background, another Percival aircraft, the Q6, can be seen. This monoplane design, with its closed cockpit and more streamlined appearance, was a more advanced and faster aircraft than the Mew Gull. The Q6 was often used for training and utility roles, offering improved performance and comfort. The setting of the RAeS garden party adds an air of elegance and sophistication to the scene. Guests are dressed in their Sunday best, mingling and chatting amongst themselves, while the two Percival aircraft serve as the focal point of the gathering. The lush greenery and clear blue sky provide a picturesque backdrop, highlighting the beauty and grace of these classic aircraft. This photograph offers a glimpse into a bygone era, a time when aviation was still a new and exciting frontier, and the RAeS played a vital role in fostering innovation and knowledge in the field. The Percival E2 Mew Gull and Q6, with their timeless designs and enduring appeal, remain symbols of that era, a testament to the passion and ingenuity of the pioneers of aviation.
