EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the iconic Canadair CT-133 Silver Star 3 G-AOHB Black Knight in all its glory. Imported by the legendary Ormond Haydon-Baillie, this aircraft was a beloved airshow performer during its time. The sleek design and powerful presence of the Black Knight made it a standout in the world of aviation.
Tragically, the story of Black Knight took a somber turn with the untimely death of Haydon-Baillie in a crash involving his Cavalier P-51 I-BILL. Despite this heartbreaking event, the legacy of both pilot and plane lives on through images like this one.
The year is circa 1977, and as we gaze upon this stunning photograph, we are transported back to an era when flight was still seen as a marvel of human ingenuity. The Canadair CT-133 Silver Star 3 G-AOHB Black Knight represents not just a machine but also a symbol of adventure and daring exploration.
As we admire this piece from The Peter Butt Aviation Collection, let us remember those who pushed boundaries and reached for the skies with courage and determination. The Black Knight may no longer soar through our skies, but its memory will forever be etched in history as a testament to human ambition and innovation in aviation.
