Vintage YS-11 aircraft on display again

SAGA–Airplane buffs can once again view the YS-11, the first domestically produced passenger aircraft of the postwar period.

The only surviving YS-11 passenger plane in Kyushu, built in 1969, is again ready for public viewing. (JUN KANEKO/ THE ASAHI SHIMBUN)

The aircraft, vintage 1969, was displayed at Saga Airport until 2005, when the exhibition site fell victim to the expansion of a cargo facility.

The YS-11 was relocated to an adjacent park in December and spruced up.

The plane was donated in 1998 to celebrate the opening of the airport.

A total of 182 YS-11s were produced. The last one retired from regular domestic service in 2006.
