EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the de Havilland Canada DHC-2T Turbo-Beaver CF-RDA (msn 1578TB7), a remarkable aircraft from the golden age of aviation. The Turbo-Beaver, an upgraded version of the iconic DHC-2 Beaver, is seen here in its prime, circa 1968. The aircraft, operated by Rodair, is adorned with the distinctive red and white paint scheme that was a common sight during this era. The Turbo-Beaver was a significant advancement in aviation technology, featuring a powerful Pratt & Whitney PT6 engine that replaced the original piston engines. This upgrade enabled the aircraft to fly at higher altitudes, faster speeds, and with greater payload capacity. The Turbo-Beaver's versatility made it an ideal choice for various applications, including passenger transport, cargo flights, and even as aerial surveying platforms. In this image, we see the CF-RDA taking off from a grassy runway, its powerful propellers churning up the earth as it gains momentum. The pilot, dressed in aviator gear, confidently guides the aircraft into the sky, leaving a trail of dust in its wake. The surrounding landscape is dotted with trees and rolling hills, adding to the serene and picturesque setting. This photograph is a testament to the beauty and power of aviation technology during the late 1960s. The de Havilland Canada DHC-2T Turbo-Beaver CF-RDA remains an iconic symbol of the era, and this image captures its essence perfectly.
