Photo Comment

Struck off strength by the Royal Canadian Air Force circa 1966, this Beech 18 went to Bradley Air Services as CF-SUQ. Pictured with Capital Air Surveys from about 1970, it was one of several Beech 18s used for mapping and surveys. Returning from a contract in North Africa, the aircraft was impounded in Prestwick and the Canadian registration cancelled in 1981. Registered G-BKGM, the aircraft flew with RAF markings for decades, but is currently flying with Bristol Airways titles in a blue color scheme.
