EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph captures the Vickers VC10 C1 XR807, a historic military transport aircraft of the Royal Air Force (RAF), as it taxis on the runway. The VC10, a versatile and iconic four-engine turboprop airliner, was designed and manufactured by Vickers-Armstrongs in the late 1950s and early 1960s. This particular aircraft, XR807, holds a unique place in RAF history as it was named in honor of two of the service's most distinguished recipients of the Victoria Cross, the highest military decoration for valor in the British Armed Forces. Donald Garland VC and Thomas Gray VC are depicted on the aircraft's nose art. Donald Garland, a Canadian-born RAF pilot, was awarded the Victoria Cross for his heroism during the Korean War, while Thomas Gray, an English RAF air gunner, received the same honor for his actions during World War II. The VC10 C1 XR807 served with distinction in RAF Air Support Command, providing vital support to the military in various roles, including troop transport, cargo transport, and even medical evacuation. The Vickers VC10 C1 XR807 stands as a testament to the bravery and dedication of the men and women who have served in the RAF and the crucial role that aircraft like the VC10 have played in supporting their efforts. This photograph not only captures the power and grace of this magnificent aircraft but also pays homage to the extraordinary individuals it honors.
