EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage photograph showcases the Piper Super Cruiser N78572 (msn 12-3947), a classic example of the Piper PA-12 series produced by the American aircraft manufacturer, Piper Aircraft Corporation. The image is believed to have been captured around 1955, before the aircraft's registration changed to G-AWPW in 1968. The Piper Super Cruiser, also known as the Piper Colt, was a popular light aircraft designed for the general aviation market. With its sleek lines and efficient design, the Super Cruiser offered excellent performance and versatility for its time. The aircraft featured a cruising speed of around 115 mph and a range of up to 800 miles, making it an ideal choice for cross-country flights. The image captures the Super Cruiser in flight, with the pilot intently focusing on the controls as the aircraft soars through the sky. The aircraft's distinctive tail fin and wings are clearly visible, as is the cockpit canopy that offered excellent visibility for the pilot. The image also showcases the aircraft's fixed landing gear, which provided stability on the ground and allowed for easy takeoffs and landings. This photograph is part of The Peter Butt Aviation Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, a renowned archive of historical aviation imagery. The collection offers a unique insight into the history of flight and the evolution of aircraft design, and this image of the Piper Super Cruiser N78572 is a testament to the enduring appeal of these classic aircraft.
