EDITORS COMMENTS
In this black-and-white photograph, Sir George Edwards stands proudly in front of a sleek and innovative Vickers Viscount airplane, dating back to the year 1960. Sir George Edwards, a renowned figure in the field of British aviation, is shown with a confident and determined expression, as he gazes upon the aircraft that would come to revolutionize the aviation industry. The Vickers Viscount, a twin-engine turboprop airliner, was a groundbreaking design for its time. It was the world's first large turboprop airliner and offered significant advantages over its piston-engine counterparts, including greater speed, range, and fuel efficiency. The Viscount's introduction marked a turning point in the aviation industry, as turboprop technology began to replace piston engines in commercial aviation. Sir George Edwards, who served as the Chief Test Pilot for Vickers-Armstrongs, played a pivotal role in the development and testing of the Viscount. His expertise and dedication to aviation were instrumental in bringing this revolutionary aircraft to life. In this photograph, we see Sir George Edwards not only as a test pilot but also as a pioneer, standing before the fruit of his labor and the future of aviation. The year 1960 marked a significant milestone in the history of aviation, as the Vickers Viscount took its first commercial flight.
