BTW, pictures 2 and 3 are from up at Burlington airport, VT, BRV. Great place to land and good custom access coming in from Canada which had done that day. Had a girlfriend up there. This bird spent a lot of time in FL to and flew to the Bahamas too. Good memories with this plane. Got my MEL Commercial Instrument in her plus my CFII MEL where my examiner even had me do a few rounds in a hold with simulated single engine. That wasn’t required but we did it anyway. She can do it very well. Those Hershey bar wings and that huge empennage make it an extremely stable and maneuverable plane. With the winning lottery ticket I would have one of these again!!!!!

Some years ago this was my plane. Looks like someone is doing some training in it. Always good. This bird may be slow but she flies beautifully. The Stec a/p was great too. That picture is one I posted years ago when I flew into Nantucket airport, ACK, where I flew to often. The Apache 235 which has 235hp engines is actually configured on an Aztec fuselage and uses augmentors instead of conventional exhaust. Only about 115 of these were made and probably less than 50 still flying. It’s undercarriage is quite strong enabling grass field landings with no problem.
Miss you ol girl! Glad and thankful you still have owners to keep you in the air! David T. Holcomb
PS I didn’t stop flying as I went on to flying for a small coal company that owned a nice Aztec and a fabulous Cessna Golden Eagle 421B. What a pilot’s bird that was, complicated but a great performer. Blue skies all!!!

Nice one John and did not realize this was the former ECO Skies livery. Thank you for sharing.

I still far prefer this livery to the cobalt blue. I wish they would go back, but they never asked me!

Thanks Gavin the lighting will be good for a few more weeks then boom will have to wait about 6 months for it to come back. The UPS ramp at DFW is about as close as you can get to the planes at Founders plaza.

Plane is definitely inverted. Sun is above the plane and the ground is below!
Written on 28.09.2020 by Gavin Hughes

That's one heck of a location. All good pics from there it seems and especially when the light plays the game.

Very, very nice. Love the Super King Air and how good is that light.
Written on 28.09.2020 by Gavin Hughes

Super pic Sharif. Always heard about the perils of Wellington and here's evidence. Very late decision too.
Written on 28.09.2020 by Gavin Hughes

Wholeheartedly agree with your sentiment and a gorgeous photo.

As always Daniel, great series of photos.
Written on 28.09.2020 by Gavin Hughes

Nice pic Daniel. Conspiracy theory aircraft - dark matte finish, reg looking as if it stuck on and in the FAA register is not in current use (was on a Cessna 172).
Written on 28.09.2020 by Gavin Hughes

Great shot.
Written on 28.09.2020 by Gavin Hughes

Neat pic Ed. Yeah absolutely sick and tired of the PC BS and we may possibly be worse than the US. Still, if it gets you a good photo, so be it.
Written on 28.09.2020 by Gavin Hughes

Well done on your night shots Brian, top stuff.

Actually, I believe the image was inverted not the plane.

Beautiful beast. I'll miss them.

Nice shot! It looks like the tail skid came close to touching.

Of course, Citabria is acrobatic spelled backwards (more or less). Spend a fair amount of time ringing one of these out.
