Bill Klaers of Westpac Aviation told me a few years ago that this airframe is held in deep storage at their facility at Colorado Springs. It was moved when the company relocated from Rialto, CA.


What does "deep storage" mean? Thanks....


It means it is too packed away to get a photo of any parts of it. It is disassembled and there are no plans to restore it.

Ahh...I thought maybe it could have meant that or it was in long term, sealed preservation. Kind of a bummer it will not be restored. Too bad they couldn't sell to someone who had the means ($) to do it.
