EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph from the archives, a lively crowd gathers at the 1950 Royal Aeronautical Society (RAeS) Garden Party held at White Waltham. The idyllic setting is filled with the excitement and anticipation of aviation enthusiasts, as they gather to celebrate their shared passion for flight. At the heart of the scene, a Westland WS51 Mk 1A, registration number G-ALIK, takes centre stage in the background. This historic aircraft, manufactured by Westland Aircraft, was a significant development in the post-war aviation industry. The Westland WS51 was a versatile machine, capable of both military and civilian applications, and its sleek design and advanced features made it a popular choice among pilots and aviation enthusiasts alike. The Garden Party at White Waltham was an annual event hosted by the RAeS, providing an opportunity for members and their families to come together and enjoy a day of aviation-themed activities. The event was a highlight of the society's calendar, and this photograph captures the essence of the day – a celebration of aviation history, innovation, and community. As the guests mingle and chat, they gaze up at the magnificent Westland WS51 Mk 1A, its wings casting a gentle shadow over the crowd. The aircraft's presence serves as a reminder of the incredible advancements in aviation technology and the enduring allure of flight. This photograph is a testament to the spirit of the RAeS and its members, who came together to celebrate their shared love of all things aviation.
