EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph from the 1960s, Auster 5 G-AJXC (msn 1049), affectionately known as "Twitch," takes center stage. The Auster 5 is a classic light aircraft, manufactured by the Auster Aircraft Company in the United Kingdom. This particular model, G-AJXC, was registered in the UK and is seen here in its elegant simplicity. The Auster 5 was a popular choice for private aviation enthusiasts and flying clubs due to its versatility and reliability. With its open cockpit design, it offered an unobstructed view of the beautiful skies and the freedom that comes with flying. The Auster 5 was also known for its short takeoff and landing capabilities, making it an ideal choice for small airfields and grass strips. In this photograph, Twitch is shown taxing on the tarmac, its propeller spinning gently as it prepares for takeoff. The plane's sleek lines and streamlined design are on full display, with the vibrant colors of the aircraft's livery contrasting against the gray tones of the runway. The image captures a moment of anticipation and excitement, as the pilot readies Twitch for its next adventure. The 1960s were a golden age for aviation, and this photograph is a testament to the romance and allure of flying during that era. The Auster 5 G-AJXC, or Twitch, is a beautiful reminder of a time when the skies were filled with the sound of propellers and the thrill of flight was within reach for many. This photograph is a must-have for any aviation enthusiast or collector, and a stunning addition to any home or office decor.
