EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken by Hugh W. Cowin on November 15, 1974, showcases the NAMCO YS-11 aircraft in its majestic glory. The YS-11, manufactured by NAMCO (Nippon Aviation Manufacturing Corporation), is a twin-engine, short-range transport aircraft that first flew in 1969. Its distinctive design, featuring a T-tail and high-mounted wings, made it a popular choice among aviation enthusiasts. In this image, the YS-11 is seen taxing on the runway at Piedmont Airlines' base, ready for its next mission. The aircraft's sleek lines and powerful engines exude an air of sophistication and capability, making it a striking sight among the other planes and aeroplanes in the background. The photograph captures the essence of aviation history, with the YS-11 representing the cutting edge of technology and innovation during the 1970s. The YS-11 was known for its versatility, with applications ranging from passenger transport to cargo and even military use. Its successor, the YS-11A, was introduced in 1973 and featured improved engines and avionics, further enhancing its performance and capabilities. The YS-11 remains an important part of aviation history, and this photograph by Hugh W. Cowin is a testament to its enduring appeal.
