This is the unique original Watercolour painting by Wilf Hardy.

Wiley Post, the one-eyed pioneer of flight. It was Wiley who first posited the idea of the jet stream, a region of the upper atmosphere where winds are constant and very strong, enabling fast long distance travel - if only the pilot could survive the low pressure; thus the gradual development of the pressure suit.

Original cover artwork from Look and Learn no. 629 (2 February 1974).
