EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, two Saab 91B Safir aircraft, F-BHAJ (msn 91298) and F-BHAG, are seen parked side by side at Biggin Hill Airport in 1959. The Saab 91B Safir, a versatile and popular Swedish-designed aircraft, was acquired by Air France in 1955 for their Aero Club. Air France's fleet included five of these aircraft, with registrations F-BHAG, F-BHAH, F-BHAI, F-BHAJ, and F-BHAK. The Saab 91B Safir was a significant addition to Air France's Aero Club, providing an excellent platform for training future pilots. The aircraft's advanced features, such as retractable landing gear and a pressurized cabin, made it an ideal choice for flight training in various conditions. In this image, we see F-BHAJ, with the registration number clearly visible on its tailfin, and F-BHAG in the background. The two aircraft, though similar in design, exhibit subtle differences, with F-BHAJ appearing to have a slightly different color scheme. The backdrop of Biggin Hill Airport, with its grass runway and hangars, adds to the nostalgic charm of this photograph. This image offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the Saab 91B Safir's role in Air France's Aero Club and the excitement of aviation during the late 1950s. The photograph captures the essence of a bygone era, with the simple beauty of these aircraft and the promise of adventure that comes with flight.
