This photograph showcases the de Havilland DH.6 B2612, a historic biplane transport aircraft produced by the de Havilland Aircraft Company in the United Kingdom. The DH.6, also known as the 'Moth Minor,' was a development of the successful DH.60 Moth series, which was renowned for its versatility and popularity among private pilots. The DH.6 B2612, specifically, was a military variant of the DH.6, which was primarily used for training purposes during the interwar period. The aircraft's open cockpit, two-seat configuration, and biplane wings are clearly visible in this image, along with its distinctive roundel markings and registration number, G-EBQZ. The DH.6 B2612 was powered by a single, inline, water-cooled, six-cylinder de Havilland Gipsy III engine, which delivered approximately 130 horsepower. With a top speed of around 105 miles per hour and a cruising speed of 85 miles per hour, the DH.6 was a capable and agile aircraft for its time. This photograph captures the DH.6 B2612 in flight, with the pilot intently focusing on the horizon as the aircraft cuts through the clouds. The image evokes a sense of adventure and the thrill of early aviation, as well as the importance of military aviation training in the lead up to World War II. The de Havilland DH.6 B2612 is an important piece of aviation history, and this photograph offers a unique and captivating glimpse into the past. Its timeless design and enduring legacy continue to inspire and captivate aviation enthusiasts and historians alike.
