Diana Giant Havilland Moth Qantas
EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the de Havilland DH61 Giant Moth, registration number G-AUJC, affectionately named "Diana," as it gracefully soars through the open skies. The DH61 Giant Moth, a two-seat biplane, was designed and manufactured by the de Havilland Aircraft Company in the United Kingdom between 1932 and 1935. Known for its distinctive large wings and open cockpit, this aircraft was a popular choice among private pilots and aviation enthusiasts due to its agility and ease of handling. G-AUJC, Diana, was one of several DH61 Giant Moths that were imported into Australia during the 1930s. It was acquired by Qantas, the renowned Australian airline, for use as a training aircraft. The plane's striking livery, featuring the Qantas logo and bold red and blue colors, is a testament to its history with the company. In this photograph, the DH61 Giant Moth appears to be cruising at a leisurely altitude, with the sun casting a warm glow over its wings and cockpit. The pilot, dressed in a leather flying helmet and goggles, gazes intently at the horizon, while the passenger, perhaps a student, looks on with a sense of awe and excitement. The vast expanse of blue sky and fluffy clouds in the background adds to the serene and idyllic scene. This photograph is a beautiful reminder of the golden age of aviation, when flying was a thrilling and adventurous pursuit, and the de Havilland DH61 Giant Moth, G-AUJC, Diana, was a symbol of freedom and exploration in the skies.
