T-34C

[Robbie Stuart]

We maintained T-34C1 s/n: GM89 for several years. This aircraft carried a Standard Airworthiness Certificate, & was very different from the A/B models in many ways. Unfortunately the aircraft was lost along with its owner & a friend of his in a fuel starvation accident Aug 1, 1995 in route to Oshkosh. This aircraft had been a Beech demonstrator/test aircraft, & had to go through, as I remember some special certification process before being sold outside the company. It was a really neat aircraft, & was not bad to work on.

somewhat related question - so if the T-34C is not allowed at all - Why then can you buy a Pilatus PC-9 if you have the 2.7M? (Check the Courtesy aircraft site)

This is the same plane as the AF is using and that the Navy is replacing the T-34C with.

Maybe because it is not a domestic plane? Just wondering.
