EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in June 1970, showcases Cessna 402A OY-AGN (msn 402A0057) proudly parked in front of the Blackpool & Fylde Gliding Club on Blackpool-Squires Gate Airport. The Cessna 402A, a versatile twin-engine turboprop aircraft, is seen in its pristine condition, embodying the essence of aviation's golden age. The Blackpool & Fylde Gliding Club, located at the airport, is known for its vibrant gliding community and the picturesque coastline in the background adds to the serene atmosphere. Unfortunately, this aircraft's history took a tragic turn on 8 May 1982, when it was involved in a crash under the registration SE-FZK. However, this photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the aircraft's past glory and the thrill of aviation during a simpler time. The Cessna 402A, with its distinctive design and powerful engines, was a popular choice for various aviation applications, including flight training, air taxi, and corporate transport. This photograph, from The Peter Butt Aviation Collection, offers a unique glimpse into the aeronautical history of Blackpool-Squires Gate Airport and the aviation industry as a whole. The image exudes a sense of nostalgia and transports us back to an era when the romance of flight was at the forefront of aviation. The combination of the Cessna 402A's sleek design, the picturesque setting, and the rich history of the Blackpool & Fylde Gliding Club make this photograph a must-have for any aviation enthusiast or collector.
