EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the historic moment of the first-flight take-off of a Vickers Vanguard at Weybridge, Brooklands, in England, on a day in 1959. The Vickers Vanguard, a British-designed and manufactured turboprop-powered airliner, was a significant development in aviation technology during the late 1950s and early 1960s. With its sleek design and impressive capabilities, the Vanguard was a four-engined aircraft that offered increased efficiency and comfort compared to its piston-engine predecessors. In this image, we see the Vanguard, registration G-APAE, taxying towards the runway under the watchful eye of the control tower at EGLB. The aircraft, adorned with the distinctive British European Airways (BEA) livery, is ready for its inaugural flight. The excitement and anticipation are palpable as the ground crew give the final checks before the powerful engines roar to life. With a swift thrust of power, the Vanguard lifts off the runway, leaving a trail of smoke in its wake. This photograph is a testament to the ingenuity and innovation of the aeronautical industry during the 1950s and 1960s. The Vickers Vanguard represented a new era in civil aviation, paving the way for more advanced turboprop and jet-powered aircraft. This image is an essential addition to any aviation enthusiast's collection, offering a glimpse into the past and the rich history of aviation in the UK.
