- HISTORY ASPECTS:
- The Provincetown-Boston Airlines (PBA) YS-11 holds a special place in the annals of regional aviation history. Operating from 1949 to 1989, PBA was a pioneering regional airline that provided essential connections between smaller communities and major cities in the northeastern United States. The YS-11, a twin-engine turboprop airliner manufactured by Nihon Aircraft Manufacturing Corporation (NAMC) in Japan, was the backbone of PBA's fleet and emblematic of the airline's commitment to reliable, short-haul air travel.
- For decades, the PBA YS-11s crisscrossed the skies, serving as a lifeline for many small towns, including the iconic Provincetown on Cape Cod, Massachusetts, and Boston. These aircraft were known for their dependability and the critical role they played in fostering economic development and tourism in the region.
- Now, you have the opportunity to own a finely detailed 1:400 scale model of the PBA YS-11, a piece of aviation history that represents an era when regional airlines were the lifeblood of local economies. Display it proudly to honor the legacy of Provincetown-Boston Airlines and the vital role it played in connecting communities. This model is not just a tribute to a bygone era; it's a celebration of the enduring spirit of regional aviation.
