MUNT - You are correct..

Lear 55 over NYC.. Flying VFR 16500 from Nantucket, back to home base

And Bill, close! The 28/31/55 all have the same (longhorn) wing

heywatchthis,

I dont mean to question you at all, but if its was a 55, where is the pillar at the rear of the windshield(ala Lear 60). I'm just anoyed if I got it wrong!
Cheers.
Bill Lear.

Bill, If you look carefully, you can see the hinges there for the back window. The piccy was taken from the rear window, pillar not in sight.. But I can assure you it is there...
Opening that little window use to be great in summer to cool the cockpit down, however this a/c has had it siliconed shut! buggers!!
And to answer your question, this is one of my regular rides, we have 3 55's and 4 35's.
Here are a couple more..
Quiet up here!

Regards
Bill.

What and where? :)

What: Fudpucker Mk2 or maybe a Mk3

Where: An aerodrome somewhere!

Rotec Radial (made in Mornington Peninsula, Melbourne) on a Flybaby 2 seater, the only one in OZ... at Narromine, Easter 2007... close enough?

Pefect! 10/10 for you! :) though you didnt mention what time it was taken! :}

Whatsit?

Harry Cooper recently did his captains endo in this one.......(well done bloke!)

It looks suspicously like a Reims F406 Caravan II...

But it could be an early model...

It definitely smells like a Cessna of sorts...

Having never been in anything bigger than a 208, it's the best I can do.

Jamair,

Citation 550 (II)

Well it IS a Cessna....still waiting:}

Citation V?

More like a Citation 500/501.
New avionics stack, but a 70's panel and Bendix A/P FCS.

Erm....8 track? :hmm:

Fathom - well spotted, 'tis indeed a 500:ok: . If you like the stack, you should see the orange velour seats and the shag pile headliner....not to mention the fluffy dice on the mirror and twin overhead foxtails on the Commant:hmm:

As they say, there is only so much silk purse you can make out of a sows ear....and a 30 year old aeroplane will never be new, irregardless how many pennies are splurged thereon. Still, the stack is nice....:p

Hempy,

Sitting on the forward radar of the mighty P3 in tropical Butterworth. Looks like its weather code blue.
