EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph from 1968, we find ourselves in the hallowed halls of the Royal Aeronautical Society (RAeS) in South Kensington, London. The image, taken during a significant exhibit, features three distinguished individuals: J.E. Hodgson, Col The Master of Sempill, AFC, FRAeS, and Mr. and Mrs. Gordon England. Col The Master of Sempill, born in 1893, served as the RAeS Chairman from 1927 to 1930. His military career spanned the early days of aviation, and his dedication to the field earned him the rank of Air Commodore in the Royal Air Force Volunteer Reserve and the title of Fellow of the Royal Aeronautical Society. Standing proudly next to Col Sempill is J.E. Hodgson, who, although not as prominently identified in the photograph, was an essential figure in the aviation community. Hodgson's presence at the exhibit underscores the importance of his contributions to the field. Mrs. and Mr. Gordon England complete the trio, adding an air of elegance and sophistication to the scene. The photograph captures a moment in time when aviation pioneers, innovators, and enthusiasts came together to celebrate the latest advancements in transport technology. The backdrop of the RAeS exhibit in South Kensington, London, further emphasizes the significance of the occasion. The room is filled with various planes, aeroplanes, and airplanes, showcasing the progress made in aviation since the early days. This photograph is a testament to the passion and dedication of the individuals who shaped the history of aviation. It serves as a reminder of the pioneering spirit that continues to drive innovation in the field and inspires future generations to explore the boundless skies.
