Notes: 10/15/05 - This Royal Canadian Air Force 3N has been in the Rusty Myers Flying Service fleet since it was surplused in 1967! RMFS has a catchy and distinctive paint scheme there! Hopefully FERM's being "dry docked" is only temporary.
These are the Hamilton Standard 22D30 Hydromatic props with 6533A-21S blades, which were stock on the Canadian aircraft.

C-FERM does not have a cargo door, but the passenger door has been modified by squaring off the bottom and hinging it there instead of at the front. This was the first "Airstair" type door in the Twin Beech and was common on corporate aircraft - - way back when. It has the stock windshield. |
