EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in aviation history. Taken in 1940, it showcases the beginning of an instructional flight in a Miles Magister, a renowned British two-seat monoplane. The pupil can be seen seated in the rear cockpit, ready to embark on this thrilling journey. The Miles M. 14 Magister was specifically designed as a basic trainer aircraft for the Royal Air Force during World War II. Affectionately known as "Maggie" this plane played a crucial role in preparing pilots for combat missions. Its sturdy construction and reliable performance made it an ideal choice for training purposes. As we gaze at this sepia-toned image, we are transported back to an era when aviation was still evolving rapidly. The cockpit of the Miles Magister symbolizes both excitement and trepidation, as young aviators prepared themselves to take flight amidst the chaos of war. This photograph not only captures the exterior beauty of this iconic aircraft but also represents the dedication and bravery exhibited by those who served in the Royal Air Force during that tumultuous time period. It serves as a poignant reminder of their sacrifice and commitment to protect their nation. Preserved through time, this print from Our Air Force published by Ward, Lock & Co Ltd allows us to appreciate both its historical significance and aesthetic appeal. It is truly a remarkable piece that encapsulates the spirit of aviation during World War II.
