Dh89 Dragon Havilland Rapide Services
EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the de Havilland DH89 Dragon Rapide, registration number G-AEAL, affectionately known as "Star of Yorkshire." The Dragon Rapide, a classic British aircraft manufactured by de Havilland between 1934 and 1941, is renowned for its versatility and durability. The Star of Yorkshire, with its distinctive red and white livery, was a part of Railway Air Services, a British airline that operated between 1934 and 1952. Although not directly involved in commercial use, the Dragon Rapide was a popular choice for the airline due to its ability to carry passengers and cargo over short distances efficiently. The image captures the Dragon Rapide in its element, with the sun casting a warm glow on its wings and the propellers spinning gracefully. The serene background of open skies and scattered clouds adds to the sense of freedom and adventure that comes with flying. The de Havilland DH89 Dragon Rapide, with its sleek design and powerful engine, was a testament to the ingenuity of British aviation during the interwar period. The Star of Yorkshire, with its rich history and timeless appeal, continues to be a beloved icon among aviation enthusiasts and history buffs alike. This photograph is a beautiful reminder of the golden age of aviation and the thrill of taking to the skies in a classic aircraft like the de Havilland DH89 Dragon Rapide.
