VH-KPY Beech 56TC Turbo Baron
(c/n c/n TG41)
The 56TC was recognizable by its two Lycoming
TIO-541-E1B4 turbocharged engines in
enlarged nacelles. This example was
delivered to Kevron Photographics (Pty) Ltd from the
US in November 1967 where it was previously registered N6217V, and, in
fact, did not
assume its VH-KPY identity
until 11 March 1968 due to a delay in DCA's "first of type"
certification for this
model.. Geoff Goodall's shot (above) was taken at Jandakot in
April,
whilst John
Wheatley's below was a couple of years later.
1972.
