EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the Percival P.66 President I, registration OY-AVA (msn H.P.AL Pem79), as it stands proudly among its aviation counterparts during the late 1960s or early 1970s. The President I, a versatile and popular aircraft designed by Percival Aircraft Company, is seen here in the company of two other notable aircraft: a Hunting-Percival 69-697 and an M-697. At the time, OY-AVA was part of the Royal Danish Air Force's fleet and was later transferred to the Danish civil register. Now, this historic aircraft is undergoing restoration at Danmarks Flyvemuseum, the Danish Aviation Museum, under the supervision of the Luftfartsdirektoratet (Danish Transport Authority). The meticulous process aims to bring OY-AVA back to static display standard, preserving its rich history and significance in aviation. The Percival P.66 President I was a popular choice for various roles, including executive transport, flight training, and even as aerial survey aircraft. Its distinctive design, with its twin engines and tail-mounted propellers, made it a recognizable figure in the skies. This photograph serves as a testament to the aircraft's enduring legacy and the passion of those dedicated to preserving aviation history.
