I saw a Piper Apache land at the airport today. When was the last time you saw a circa 1950s GA twin land? - piper apache

One type of machine squat, amused. But the engine noise was very sexy.

I had the opportunity to fly in a few months and are very good, if a plane had gone unheeded. Of the 2116 PA23 150, 160 and 235 of them are still registered in 1146, the United States. There are 2446 registered PA23-250 Aztec.
The models do not exist yet silent motors. Exhaust pipes were briefly open, and poured into a tube five or six inches in diameter (tube gain) on both ends. The exhaust gases behaved like a jet-pipe, the heat from the engine to remove the noise and called sexy.

OL Apache has a good track. A cursory glance at trade fairs in a plane 16 for sale in the current list of the newest, a 1968-model. I think they were built from 1954 until 1970 (maybe 1969), but they were at the beginning of the "light" in their respective markets.

I like for those who have served and do not continue to see the work! There are at least two at our airport.

I was about to buy one of these old things with a year ago, MM, I pitied the poor creature, because he was riding hard and save all wet, too often (I know that feeling!). Then, shake, good back, his head and walked away. To give you an idea of the seriousness of it was, they had asked only about 20K for it. It flew, but my God, I'm glad it was not that what led to the hook. Apache is not much to start somewhere, and would have to fly close to 40K on the sale price just to make my thoughts. I know how Travolta, Connie opinion of Age.

Local professional flying a Twin Otter in the newspaper. They have improved the turboprop, but still. From a DC-6 from the floor for a few days earlier, and several Stinson in 1930 and motors beaver in the corner. Independent, but still cool. Up the Road "is a C-47 is for transporting fuel to remote runways too short for the DC-6 engines were still used in the year.
