Are these AC50s ex Coastwatch?

I am aware, from an ex observer, that these were subjected to negative G as a demo of pilot prowess to the observer/s. Heard of one case severe enough to produce a loss of power on one engine.

Having said that, I would expect that these problems would have been identified by now with the required spar inspections needed in the course of their maintenance schedules.
