On display at Gifu-Kakamigahara Air and Space Museum. The YS-11 was Japan's first passenger aircraft developed and produced after the war. The prototype first flew on 30 August 1962. Deliveries commenced in 1965 to a large number of civil operators as well as the JASDF and JMSDF. A total of 182 YS-11 were built before loss-making NAMC ceased production. The wings and engine nacelles of this YS-11 were produced in Kakamigahara.
