Dh95 Flamingo Havilland Prototype Unmarked
EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the unmarked prototype de Havilland DH95 Flamingo, registration number G-AFEU, as it gracefully takes to the skies. The DH95 Flamingo, designed and manufactured by de Havilland Aircraft Company in the 1930s, was a versatile and popular aircraft used primarily for private and military transport. The sleek and elegant design of the Flamingo is evident in this image, with its distinctive rounded wings and streamlined fuselage. The unpainted aluminum finish of the prototype adds to its understated yet striking appearance. The open cockpit, seating two pilots, offers a panoramic view of the surrounding landscape, making for an exhilarating flying experience. The DH95 Flamingo was powered by a de Havilland Gipsy Major engine, capable of producing 130 horsepower, and had a top speed of 120 miles per hour. Its range of 500 miles made it an ideal choice for long-distance flights, and its ability to carry a payload of up to 1,000 pounds made it a popular choice for those requiring transport capabilities. Despite its civilian success, the DH95 Flamingo also saw military service during World War II, where it was used for various roles including reconnaissance, liaison, and training. This versatile aircraft proved to be a valuable asset to both military and civilian aviation communities. This photograph captures a moment in aviation history, showcasing the unmarked prototype DH95 Flamingo in its element, soaring through the skies with grace and power.
