EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures Sir Harry M. Garner (1892-1977), Principal Scientific Officer at the Marine Aircraft Experimental Establishment (MAEE), standing proudly in front of a Blackburn Iris aircraft at RAF Felixstowe in 1831. Sir Harry, who would later be knighted for his contributions to aviation, is flanked by RAF officers in their uniforms, adding an air of authority and importance to the scene. The Blackburn Iris, a two-seat biplane, was a significant aircraft in the early history of the Royal Air Force (RAF), and its presence here underscores the innovative research and development work being carried out at the MAEE during this period. With a keen interest in transport aeroplanes, Sir Harry played a pivotal role in the testing and evaluation of new aircraft designs, ensuring that the RAF remained at the forefront of aviation technology. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, showcasing the dedication and passion of Sir Harry and his team as they pushed the boundaries of aviation science and technology.
