Suspended in mid-air, a brave parachutist is seen gracefully descending from the trailing edge of a lower wing on a biplane.

The Aerofilms Collection has once again provided us with a remarkable glimpse into aviation history.

The biplane itself stands as a testament to early aircraft design, with its distinct double wings and open cockpit.

This mesmerizing print serves as a reminder of our collective human desire for exploration and adventure - pushing boundaries beyond what was previously thought possible. In summary, "Parachutist AFL03_aerofilms_c11965" transports us back in time while celebrating both aviation history and the indomitable spirit of those who dared to defy gravity
