1961: A Historic Moment for the Pilatus PC-6 Porter HB-FAZ at the XXIVe Salon International de l'Aeronautique au Bourget This evocative photograph captures the Pilatus PC-6 Porter aircraft, registration HB-FAZ, on display at the XXIVe Salon International de l'Aeronautique au Bourget in 1961. The Salon International de l'Aeronautique, or Paris Air Show, is a prestigious event in the aviation world, and this image showcases the Pilatus PC-6 Porter in all its glory as it proudly represented the latest innovations in aviation technology. At the time of this photograph, HB-FAZ was a relatively new addition to the Pilatus fleet, having been sold to Air Alpes on 19 July 1961. The Pilatus PC-6 Porter is a versatile, short-takeoff and landing (STOL) aircraft, making it an ideal choice for mountainous regions and remote areas. Air Alpes, a Swiss airline specializing in mountain flights, was an excellent fit for this capable aircraft. Unfortunately, the history of HB-FAZ took a tragic turn. On 2 September 1961, the aircraft crashed on Col du Dome du Gouter, a mountain peak in the Mont Blanc massif. Despite the unfortunate ending, this photograph remains an essential record of the Pilatus PC-6 Porter's early history and its presence at the prestigious Paris Air Show in 1961. This image offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the Pilatus PC-6 Porter's iconic design and the excitement surrounding its presence at the international aeronautical event. The Pilatus PC-6 Porter continues to be a beloved aircraft in the aviation community, with its unique capabilities and enduring appeal making it a favorite among pilots and enthusiasts alike. This photograph is a testament to the rich history of aviation and the significant role that the Pilatus PC-6 Porter has played in shaping the industry.
