EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the Short S.22 Scion Senior, registration number G-AECU, a classic transport aircraft that once graced the skies with its elegant design and impressive capabilities. The Short S.22 Scion Senior is a British-built twin-engine aircraft, manufactured by Short Brothers in Belfast, Northern Ireland, between 1947 and 1954. It was designed primarily for the transport role, carrying up to 24 passengers or 4,500 pounds (2,041 kg) of freight. The Short S.22 Scion Senior in this image is adorned with the distinctive livery of the Senior Air Transport Limited, a British airline that operated the type from 1948 until 1956. The aircraft's sleek lines, high wings, and twin tailfins give it an unmistakable presence on the tarmac. Its twin de Havilland Gipsy Queen 5 engines, each producing 450 horsepower, allowed it to reach a cruising speed of around 150 miles per hour (241 km/h). This photograph offers a glimpse into the golden age of aviation, when air travel was still a novelty and the world seemed just a little bit smaller. The Short S.22 Scion Senior, with its versatile design and reliable performance, played a crucial role in connecting people and places during this exciting period in history. Today, it stands as a testament to the ingenuity and innovation of the aviation industry and serves as a reminder of the romance and adventure that once filled the skies.
