This plane is beautiful and it is bigger than it's brothers the hs748, the Fokker and the convairs. The conviars have Allysons which are very nice too.
Interesting you noticed that. Most of the Piedmont Airlines YS-11s that I saw and flew on had the passenger door that slid to the side. The stairs were the same however. I flew one of these from DCA to ROA and CRW back in 1981. I loved that plane.
I have great memories of flying in YS11 interisland in Hawaii on Mid Pacific Airlines. All the beers you can drink on the 1 hour flight!
I remember the ys11a from Peidmont Airlines in charlotte Douglas international
Piedmont used this type of aircraft extensively!
The good ole days ... employed by PI in 1982. F/A based in ROA!
ああああこの音、この音だよぉおおお
Love the YS-11 and the RR sound!
I miss riding on the YS-11a.. the sound of those Rolls Royce Darts!
The same RR Dart engines like the ones on the Fokker F27
Same base engine!

Flew on the Convair 580 many times
The Allison engines were unbelievable in sound and power
Those are some good sized props. Takes a strong engine to turn those.
There is nothing like the sound of those screaming Darts!😃
このYS-11 152号機は,今は退役しており,あいち航空ミュージアムに展示されております。
How many of those were built with a door like that? Most of them I know we're built with the rearward opening door.

Muito lindo esse YS11. (do Brasil)
O som dos motores igual ao foker ....saudades..
Rolls Royce Dart engines, but the best ever sound to hear is 4 Rolls Royce supercharged Merlin engines on an Avro Lancaster
ENGINES FOKER F27 AVRO ROLLs ROYCE
ロールスロイス ダートサウンド いいですね!!
Great airplane but RR Engines are underpowered RR Mk-542-11J approximately 2400 Shp Too bad Allisions couldn’t fit it
