EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the de Havilland Canada DHC-6-100 Twin Otter aircraft, specifically registration N591MA (msn 86), as it gracefully rests on the tarmac at Lynden Pindling International Airport in Nassau, Bahamas, in 1968. The Twin Otter, a versatile and iconic short takeoff and landing (STOL) aircraft, was manufactured by de Havilland Canada and is renowned for its ability to operate from unpaved runways and in challenging environmental conditions. The Twin Otter's distinctive twin-engine design and high-wing configuration are evident in this image, as is the vibrant orange and white paint scheme of Island Flying Services, the aircraft's then-owner. The Twin Otter was a popular choice for various applications, including passenger transport, cargo operations, and even as aerial survey platforms. However, this image does not depict a commercial use of the aircraft. The serene atmosphere at the airport is emphasized by the clear blue sky and the lush greenery in the background, creating a picturesque scene that encapsulates the essence of aviation in the Bahamas during the late 1960s. This photograph is a testament to the Twin Otter's enduring appeal and its role in the history of aeronautical transportation.
