EDITORS COMMENTS
RAF Westland Whirlwind search and rescue helicopters brave the treacherous winter weather as they queue to land at the RAF Fylingdales construction site in North Yorkshire, England. The date is January 15th, 1963, a day etched in history for its heavy snowfall that left many stranded and isolated. In this print captured during the blizzard of '63, these military marvels stand tall against the backdrop of snowy moors.
