EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Charles E Brown, we witness a remarkable moment in aviation history. The image showcases the Handley Page Harrow aircraft gracefully hovering above the shimmering waters, ready to refuel the majestic Short "C". Class flying boat named "CABOT". This snapshot takes us back to 1939 when Flight Refuelling and Imperial Airways collaborated to push the boundaries of aerial technology. The Handley Page Harrow, with its sleek design and powerful engines, stands as a symbol of engineering prowess. Its purpose? To provide fuel replenishment for long-haul flights undertaken by aircraft like the magnificent "CABOT". As they meet mid-air, one can almost feel the thrill and anticipation surrounding this daring maneuver. The Short "C". Class flying boat itself is an awe-inspiring sight. With its elegant wingspan and streamlined body, it represents both beauty and functionality in perfect harmony. Known as "CABOT" this particular aircraft holds a significant place in aviation history due to its association with Imperial Airways. This extraordinary photograph not only captures two iconic planes but also immortalizes an era marked by innovation and ambition. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity and our relentless pursuit of progress in aviation technology. Displayed at the Royal Air Force (RAF) Museum, this print invites viewers on a journey through time—an opportunity to marvel at these incredible machines that paved the way for modern air travel.
