This photograph showcases Uk Army Aeroplane No. 207, a Maurice Farman Type Royal, during its tenure with the Royal Flying Corps (RFC) in the 1910s. The image, captured at Farnborough, England, depicts the exterior of the aircraft as it sits on the tarmac, ready for its next mission. With the distinctive biplane design and the RFC roundel emblazoned on its sides, this Maurice Farman Type Royal is a testament to the early days of military aviation. The Royal Flying Corps, the precursor to the Royal Air Force, was established in 1912, and the Maurice Farman Type Royal was one of the earliest aircraft in its fleet. This particular aircraft, Uk Army Aeroplane No. 207, was a part of 2 Squadron, which was formed in 1912 and was based at Farnborough. The Maurice Farman Type Royal was a biplane designed by Maurice Farman, a prominent figure in the early days of aviation. It was a single-seat, open-cockpit aircraft with a wingspan of 33 feet and a length of 28 feet. Powered by a 50 horsepower Gnome rotary engine, it had a maximum speed of 45 miles per hour. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, providing a unique perspective on the early days of military aviation in the United Kingdom. The image is a reminder of the pioneering spirit and innovation that drove the development of military aircraft during this era, paving the way for the modern air forces of today.
