"Still looks like a 1940s hairyplane to me"
.... and the A380 and latest Boeings look like 1950's designs to me!
".... until recently - an FTDK. When the V35 was landed on its nose ....."
Walrus - I assume that was VH-FWE. Bloody tragedy. I used to get around NW Qld in that aeroplane in 1974.
".... don't ya think Beech oughta consider a door for the pilot?"
I guess the thing that sets the Bo apart from other similar aircraft is the fact that most pilots don't want to get out of them, hence no need for a pilot's door!
