EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "G-ACLL: The Graceful Flight of a de Havilland DH.85 Leopard Moth" 2. Description: This evocative photograph captures the timeless beauty and elegance of the de Havilland DH.85 Leopard Moth, registration number G-ACLL, as it gracefully soars through the open sky. The DH.85 Leopard Moth, a classic biplane design, was manufactured by de Havilland Aircraft Company between 1934 and 1938. Known for its distinctive leopard spotting on the wings, this aircraft was a popular choice among private pilots and aviation enthusiasts during the interwar period. 3. Background: The de Havilland DH.85 Leopard Moth was designed by Geoffrey de Havilland as a development of the successful DH.83 Fox Moth. It was a two-seat, open-cockpit biplane with a top speed of 110 mph and a range of around 500 miles. The aircraft was powered by a de Havilland Gipsy Major engine, which provided a cruising speed of 95 mph. 4. History of G-ACLL: G-ACLL, the subject of this photograph, was first registered in the United Kingdom in 1936. It has an interesting history, having been used for both private flying and air racing. In the late 1930s, it was flown by renowned aviator Peter Butt, who set several speed records in the aircraft. After the war, G-ACLL was sold to the United States, where it saw service as a glider tug before being returned to the UK in the 1980s for restoration. 5. Legacy: The de Havilland DH.85 Leopard Moth remains a beloved icon of aviation history, with many still in operation today. The aircraft's distinctive design and impressive performance continue to captivate pilots and enthusiasts alike, making it a cherished part of aviation history. This photograph of G-ACLL, with its graceful flight and timeless appeal, serves as a testament to the enduring allure of the de Havilland DH.85 Leopard Moth.
