EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the enchanting night of October 1932 at Hanworth Air Park in London. The image features Captain Ayre, a distinguished pilot of his time, standing proudly amidst the darkness illuminated only by the vibrant red glow of a flare. The photograph captures an air of mystery and adventure as Captain Ayre's silhouette is outlined against the backdrop of an aircraft on this private airfield. His confident stance reflects his expertise in flying, while the red flare adds a touch of drama to the scene. Hanworth Air Park was known for its significance in aviation history during the 1930s, serving as a hub for pilots and their magnificent planes. This particular moment frozen in time showcases both the technical prowess required for night flights and highlights Captain Ayre's dedication to his craft. Bernard Alfieri's skillful photography perfectly encapsulates this era where aviation was still relatively new and awe-inspiring. As we gaze upon this remarkable image today, it serves as a reminder of how far we have come in terms of transportation technology. This print from Memory Lane Prints offers us a glimpse into our past, reminding us that even amidst darkness, there are those who dare to soar above it all with unwavering determination and passion for flight.
