EDITORS COMMENTS
In this vintage photograph, a group of four individuals stand proudly next to an Avro 671 Cierva C30A autogyro, with its distinctive rotor blades fully extended. The Avro Cierva C30A, also known as the "Cierva W.10," was a British transport autogyro that saw active service during the 1930s and 1940s. Two of the men in the group, Sqn Ldr Alan Marsh, AFC (second from the left), and R.A.C. Brie (second from the right), are identified in the caption. Alan Marsh was a decorated pilot and flying instructor, who served in the Royal Air Force (RAF) during World War II. R.A.C. Brie, on the other hand, is less well-known, but it is mentioned that he was also associated with the RAF. The other two men in the group remain unidentified, adding to the intrigue of this historic photograph. The Avro 671 Cierva C30A, with its advanced design and innovative technology, was a significant aircraft in its time, offering increased maneuverability and versatility compared to traditional fixed-wing aircraft. The group's presence next to the autogyro suggests that they may have been involved in its operation or maintenance. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the camaraderie and innovation that characterized the early days of aviation. The Avro 671 Cierva C30A, with its distinctive design and the proud group of men next to it, stands as a testament to the spirit of adventure and progress that defined the era.
