EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage photograph, taken on May 27, 1961, captures the Piper PA-22-150 Caribbean aircraft, registration number G-ARHH (msn 22-7626), at Newcastle Airport. The Piper PA-22-150, also known as the Caribbean, is a popular single-engine, four-seat airplane, renowned for its versatility and reliability. The Caribbean was a significant addition to the Piper Aircraft Corporation's lineup, introduced in 1959, and quickly became a favorite among private pilots and flight schools. This particular aircraft, G-ARHH, was manufactured in the United States and later imported to the UK. The image showcases the Caribbean's sleek design, with its distinctive tailfin and wingtip markings. The aircraft's engine, a Lycoming O-360-A2A, is visible through the open cowling. The propeller blades are fully extended, suggesting the aircraft was recently taxied or about to take off. The Newcastle Airport backdrop adds to the nostalgic feel of the photograph. The airport, located in the northeast of England, was an essential hub for both military and civilian aviation during the 1960s. The presence of the Caribbean at Newcastle Airport highlights the vibrant general aviation scene during this era. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing a classic aircraft in its element at a bustling airport. It serves as a reminder of the rich history of aviation and the enduring appeal of the Piper PA-22-150 Caribbean.
