Does anyone know which Beech 18 this is? ...

The resolution is not high enough to read the c/r.

Mike,

I saw this plane at a West Houston CAF open house in '03. I got the registration as N6676. According to the "Landings" website locator, the serial number is CA-104.

Hope this helps a bit. I'm going to owe you a mucho bunch of gratitude when I process my Genesseo Pics this winter. Great job on your attendance list.

Jeff

Ahhhh shucks.... :oops: :lol:

Happy to share the info. I did the work for myself anyway, and it is a simple step to ask Scott to post it in the downloads section. Good to hear it was found to be useful.

Mike,

N6676 is owned by a Scott Rosell (spell?) out of Houston. Might have a partner in the airplane which might explain the corporation name. Anyway... he is the main sponsor on the CAF P-63. I flew right seat in N6676 back in May at the West Houston Wing Open House. Below is a picture of me loggin time...

Hmmm,
Bobby Younkin!

What a nice job he does throwing that airplane around at airshows.
Seeing him do his aerobatic routine in that airplane back in 91 or so
when it was in navy colors, I was really impressed.
Seeing him do that along with one of his other routines in the same day is amazing

The Decathalon
The -18
Samson
and the Lear 23

Another Great Airshow Performer!
