OE-VED was the last in a series of four prototypes, the first of which, OE-VEA designated as the M-222 Flamingo made its first flight in May 1959 but crashed later the same year. Two further examples followed, after which and following some substantial design alterations, OE-VED (later re-registered as OE-FEC), appeared as the SGP-222A, an intended pre-production airframe. Despite the aircraft receiving both Austrian and American type certification (for which it was designated the SG-222VS), the project was cancelled at the end of 1964 and all three survivors were later scrapped.

Surely one of the most bizarre Beech 18/C-45 modifications. Former TC-45H 51-11544, converted by Rausch Engineering at Oakland CA. in 1960 but failed to receive FAA certification. Mods included the use of P-51 main gear, T-28 nose gear, a 13 ft nose extension, a 4ft rear fuselage extension, a heightened roof and enlarged cabin windows! The aircraft was cancelled from the US register in January 1976 and scrapped at Antioch CA. in 1977.
