James Field's Shipshape and Bristol Fashion
A painting by my late father, James Field. He was an artist and illustrator with a passion for history. Below is the accompanying text he wrote at the time:
On 3 November 1915 the first land plane to be flown from an aircraft carrier, was Bristol Scout C 1255 piloted by Flight Lieutenant H.F. Towler RNAS. He took to the air from the flying off platform built onto the bows of the seaplane carrier HMS Vindex. HMS Vindex was converted from the Isle of Man Steam Packet, Viking.
