EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, eight Gloster Meteor NF11s of 85 Squadron line up on the tarmac during the final rehearsals for the 1953 RAF Review. The iconic jets, with their distinctive wingtip fuel tanks and tail fins, exude power and precision as they prepare to take to the sky in a breathtaking display of aerial acrobatics. The RAF Review was an annual event held at RAF Fairford in Gloucestershire, England, showcasing the very best of the Royal Air Force's aircraft and personnel. The 1953 event marked the centenary of powered flight, and the Metheors of 85 Squadron were a fitting addition to the line-up, representing the cutting edge of post-war aviation technology. The Gloster Meteor NF11 was a versatile aircraft, serving in various roles including fighter, trainer, and night fighter. Its sleek design and advanced features made it a formidable presence in the skies, and it remained in service with the RAF until the late 1960s. As the sun begins to set over the airfield, the pilots of 85 Squadron put the final touches to their routine, ensuring every maneuver is perfected. The roar of their engines grows louder as they taxi onto the runway, ready to thrill the crowds with their aerial ballet. This photograph captures a moment of anticipation and excitement, as the world of aviation comes together to celebrate the past, present, and future of flight.
