Beech 18 Annual Service

Beech18 Pilot — Tue, 22 Sep 2009 22:01:35 +0000

The Beech 18 is out of the water ready for the annual. This is a major operation and as you can see from your pics we have quite the complex system to “land” this aircraft on shore. It will take about a week to do a full annual on her with every panel pulled, engines checked, radios updated and the list goes on and on.

Beech 18 with hammocks deployed! One of only two of these types of aircraft and what is even more important is the fact that Sheble operates up and down the Colorado River! You will get real world, no kidding, hands on flying in some of the toughest areas to navigate.
