Some Classic Photos

Post by steve p »

Just been informed that Flight International is currently putting its archive on the net. Not much of their vast archive has been scanned yet, but a lot of what has been, is just incredible. Take a peek:

Steve, thanks very much indeed. What an amazing resource this will be. For instance, I've already seen more air-to-air photos of the Avro Tudor than I knew existed.

Definitely going to add this to Faves. :smile:

Reading the blurb on the site I get the impression that they are taking requests for future scanning sessions. Get emailing... :smile:

I like the fact that they are uploading complete sessions so that along with the well-known shots you are getting some super rarities.

Not only their photo archive, but their drawings and cutaways too.
