Photo Comment

An early 310 built in 1957. Visible in this view is the eductor-tube type exhaust system which used the venturi effect to accelerate hot gasses. This caused a distinctive whistling noise which was noticeable when they flew overhead at low altitude. This one became EC-LNY and cancelled in September 2020.
