EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the 1930s at Croydon Airport, witnessing a remarkable moment in aviation history. The image captures a group of determined commercial pilots returning to flight school for further education, specifically studying engineering. It was taken on the 15th of December in 1937 and showcases the dedication and passion these men had for their craft. The scene unfolds within a classroom setting where an intimate gathering of individuals can be seen engrossed in their studies. The atmosphere is charged with anticipation as they delve into the intricacies of aero engines, an essential aspect of their profession. These aspiring aviators were exclusively male, reflecting the times when opportunities for women in such fields were limited. This photograph not only highlights the commitment these pilots had towards expanding their knowledge but also serves as a testament to the importance placed on education within aviation during that era. As they immerse themselves in this demonstration-based lesson, one cannot help but marvel at how far technology has advanced since then. Roper's expertly captured image allows us to glimpse into this significant moment where dreams took flight amidst pencils and textbooks. It reminds us that progress is built upon foundations laid by those who sought continuous learning and improvement - qualities still cherished today within our ever-evolving world of transport and aviation.
