EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph from the 1936 Royal Aeronautical Society Garden Party, held at the Fairey Aviation Aerodrome in Hayes, Middlesex, spectators gather in awe as a fire-fighting demonstration takes place. The setting sun casts a warm glow over the scene, illuminating the sleek lines of the vintage aircraft that line the runway. The Fairey Aviation Company, known for its innovative designs and manufacturing of seaplanes and other aircraft types, had graciously opened its doors to members of the Royal Aeronautical Society for an afternoon of aviation-themed entertainment. Amidst the excitement of the day, which included aircraft displays, test flights, and various demonstrations, this particular event showcased the importance of fire safety in the aviation industry. Firefighters from the local fire department are seen in the foreground, dressed in their protective gear, as they prepare to extinguish a simulated aircraft fire. The fire is generated by a controlled burn, providing an authentic and dramatic display for the onlookers. Smoke billows from the mock aircraft, adding to the sense of urgency and intensity. In the background, a variety of aircraft, including biplanes and monoplanes, are parked neatly on the runway, their wings reflecting the golden hues of the sunset. The Fairey Aviation Aerodrome, with its modern facilities and advanced aircraft, served as the perfect backdrop for this thrilling demonstration, highlighting the importance of fire safety and the advancements in aviation technology during this era.
