EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, a de Havilland Canada U-6A Beaver with the registration number 53-2781 (MSN 562-1323) is seen parked at Edwards Air Force Base in the United States, circa 1990. The U-6A Beaver is a military variant of the iconic de Havilland Canada Beaver, a versatile and highly capable short takeoff and landing (STOL) aircraft. This particular Beaver served in the United States Air Force (USAF), where it was used for various missions, including aerial observation, communication, and transportation. The U-6A model was an upgraded version of the original U-6 Beaver, featuring more powerful engines and improved avionics. The image captures the Beaver's distinctive features, such as its high-mounted wings, large floats, and boxy cabin. The aircraft's military livery adds an air of authority and purpose, with its bold markings and insignia. The background of the photograph showcases the arid landscape of Edwards Air Force Base, highlighting the Beaver's ability to operate in diverse environments. The U-6A Beaver was a valuable asset to the USAF, providing essential services in remote and challenging locations. Its short takeoff and landing capabilities, combined with its rugged design and reliability, made it an ideal choice for various military applications. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the versatility and enduring appeal of the de Havilland Canada U-6A Beaver.
