This photograph showcases the NAMC YS-11-117 (msn 2029), registration PK-MYA, as it gracefully takes to the skies during an aeronautical test flight around 1975. The NAMC YS-11 is a twin-engine, short-range airliner developed by the Japanese aircraft manufacturer Nihon Aviation Industry Co., Ltd. (NAMC). This specific model, the YS-11-117, is an extended version of the original YS-11, featuring an increased fuselage length and seating capacity. The YS-11 series was designed to cater to the domestic Japanese market, with its short takeoff and landing (STOL) capabilities making it an ideal choice for the country's numerous short runways. The aircraft's sleek, modern design and advanced technology, such as its high-mounted wings and T-tail configuration, were groundbreaking for the time. In this photograph, we see PK-MYA soaring above the clouds, leaving a trail of vapor in its wake. The image captures the essence of flight, with the plane's wings outstretched and the sky a brilliant expanse of blue behind it. The YS-11-117's distinctive livery, featuring a red stripe along the fuselage and the Japanese flag on the tail, adds to its visual appeal. This photograph is a testament to the beauty and engineering prowess of the NAMC YS-11-117 and the thrill of aviation. It offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing a moment in time when this remarkable aircraft was pushing the boundaries of what was possible in the world of flight.
