This print showcases the iconic Gloster Meteor IV EE455, forever etched in aviation history. In November 1945, this remarkable aircraft took to the skies with one audacious goal: breaking the World Air Speed Record. The skilled pilot behind this daring attempt was none other than Eric Greenwood, a true pioneer of his time. As we gaze upon this image captured by Charles E Brown, we are transported back to that momentous day when boundaries were pushed and limits were shattered. The sleek design of the Gloster Meteor IV EE455 is beautifully highlighted against a backdrop of endless blue skies, symbolizing mankind's relentless pursuit of progress and innovation.
