EDITORS COMMENTS
In this historic photograph, Major Frank Bernard Halford CBE FRAeS (1894-1955) stands proudly in front of the prototype de Havilland Comet, marking a significant moment in aviation history. Major Halford, a renowned figure in the field of aeronautics, served as the President of the Royal Aeronautical Society from 1951 to 1952. The image was captured in 1955, a year before the Comet's first commercial flight, which revolutionized air travel with its innovative design and ability to fly at supersonic speeds. Major Halford's distinguished career in aviation began in the Royal Flying Corps during World War I, where he flew Sopwith Camels and earned the Military Cross. After the war, he joined de Havilland Aircraft Company, where he played a crucial role in the development of various aircraft models. His expertise and contributions to the aviation industry were recognized with numerous accolades, including the CBE (Commander of the Order of the British Empire) and Fellowship of the Royal Aeronautical Society (FRAeS). The Comet prototype, a groundbreaking achievement in aviation technology, is seen here in its pre-production stage. Its innovative design, featuring a swept-wing configuration and a pressurized cabin, paved the way for the era of jet-powered commercial air travel. Major Halford's presence in this photograph underscores his role in the development of this revolutionary aircraft and his significant impact on the aviation industry.
