EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the Percival P.54 Prince 4 9V-BBM, a historic aviation icon that graced the skies during the mid-20th century. Built in 1951 as G-AMLY, this Percival Prince served the Shell Flying and Marketing Company until March 10, 1955, when it was sold to Martin-Baker Aircraft Co. In 1958, the plane was exported to Brunei and registered as VR-UDC. In the late 1960s, it was then acquired by Singapore Air Services and given the registration number 9V-BBM. The Percival P.54 Prince 4 is a versatile aircraft that was initially designed for the Royal Australian Air Force as a trainer and utility aircraft. This particular model, 9V-BBM, is a four-seat version, which was popular for its adaptability to various roles, including flight training, survey work, and even passenger transport. Circa 1970, this photograph captures the essence of the Percival Prince's timeless design and its continued relevance in the aviation industry. The image portrays the plane in pristine condition, with its distinctive lines and elegant curves accentuated by the sunlight. The Percival P.54 Prince 4 9V-BBM remains an enduring symbol of aviation history and a testament to the ingenuity and innovation of its era.
