EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures Lady Mary Heathcote Ames Cobham (1899-1992), the intrepid English aviator, and her husband, Sir Alan Cobham (1894-1973), during their historic fourth survey flight around Africa for Imperial Airways in 1927. The daring couple, both wearing flying goggles and leather jackets, wave enthusiastically to the crowd gathered at the airfield, their faces filled with excitement and determination. Lady Cobham, with her stylish bob hairstyle and confident demeanor, embodies the spirit of adventure and pioneering women of the 1920s. Sir Alan, a renowned aviator and founder of the Air Transport Auxiliary during World War II, looks focused and resolute as he prepares for takeoff. This image, taken by acclaimed photographer Terry Parker, offers a glimpse into the thrilling world of early aviation and the remarkable couple who dared to explore the vast, uncharted skies of Africa.
