EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the Avro 643 Mk. II Cadet aircraft, specifically registration VH-AGH (msn 990), which was part of the fleet operated by Marshall Airways in Australia during the 1960s. The Avro 643 Mk. II Cadet was a two-engine, single-piston trainer aircraft, designed and manufactured by the Avro Aircraft Company in the United Kingdom. The aircraft in the image appears to be taking off from a grass runway, with the pilot and trainee in the cockpit, focused intently on their instruments and controls. The open cockpit design allows for an unobstructed view of the surrounding landscape, providing an immersive experience for the trainee as they learn the fundamentals of flight. The Avro 643 Mk. II Cadet was a popular choice for flying schools and private pilots due to its affordability, ease of maintenance, and versatility. The aircraft was capable of carrying a maximum weight of 2,650 kg and had a cruising speed of 120 mph. Marshall Airways, based in Australia, was a leading provider of aviation services during the mid-20th century. The company offered a range of services, including flight training, charter flights, and aircraft maintenance. VH-AGH, with its distinctive red and white livery, was a proud addition to their fleet. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to an era of aviation history where the thrill of flying was a shared experience between pilot and trainee. The Avro 643 Mk. II Cadet, with its timeless design and enduring legacy, continues to be a cherished symbol of the early days of aviation in Australia.
