EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph from The Peter Butt Aviation Collection at Mary Evans Prints Online, we witness a group of young students from Elliotts of Newbury EoN Primary School, excitedly gathered around an aircraft at the SBAC Farnborough Airshow in September 1948. The children, dressed in their Sunday best, are deeply engrossed in the aeronautical marvel before them, their curious eyes reflecting a boundless fascination with the world of flight. The Farnborough Airshow, held annually since 1948, is a renowned international aerospace event that showcases the latest innovations in aircraft and aviation technology. This particular gathering in 1948 marked a significant period in post-war aviation history, as the industry was rapidly advancing and the public's interest in aviation was at an all-time high. The aircraft that has captured the children's attention is not clearly visible in the photograph, but the sense of wonder and excitement on their faces is palpable. The image serves as a poignant reminder of the transformative power of aviation and its ability to inspire and captivate the imagination of future generations. As we reflect on this photograph, we are transported back in time to a moment of innocence and awe, where the magic of flight transcended the boundaries of age and circumstance. The children of Elliotts of Newbury EoN Primary School, standing before an aircraft at the SBAC Farnborough Airshow in 1948, represent the enduring spirit of curiosity and exploration that continues to drive the aviation industry forward.
