Happy 50th Birthday HS.125 - 13th August
Monday 13th August marks the 50th Anniversary of the first flight of the (then) DH.125.
The first flight took place at Hatfield on that date in 1962 with A.C (Chris) Capper at the controls accompanied by Flight Test Observer John Rye. The flight lasted 56 minutes.
Love her or hate her, in her various guises the 125 has been around 50 years - a tremendous record and a salute to British aviation in the late 50's and early 60's.
cheers
