EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the iconic Piper PA-18 Super Cub ZK-BQY in all its glory, as it sits proudly at Hamilton, NZ in October 1963. The sleek design of this aircraft is truly a sight to behold, with its powerful engine and distinctive markings making it stand out against the clear blue sky.
Little did anyone know at the time that this very aircraft would meet its unfortunate end just four years later, when it was written off in a tragic accident at Galatea on 29 October 1967. Despite its untimely demise, this image serves as a reminder of the beauty and grace of aviation, capturing a moment frozen in time before tragedy struck.
