"The One Show"

“The One Show” programme on BBC-1 on Tuesday 29 October featured a short film, presented by Dan Snow, about Claude Grahame-White’s 1910 attempts to capture the Daily Mail’s £10,000 prize for the first successful flight from London to Manchester. The Royal Aero Club Collection includes several original albums of photographs and press cuttings about the flights, including the three images shown here. Volunteers from the Royal Aero Club Trust were pleased to help with background research for the television programme.
