VH-RLX Cessna 320D
Executive
Skynight
(c/n 320D-0097)
The Cessna 320 Skynight which
was basically a 310F with enlarged rear cabin windows and six
seats, was not built in anything like the numbers that the 310
was. In fact, the model D sub-series
was the most numerous of all, and
only 130 of those were built. It differed from
earlier 320s in
having 285 hp TSIO-520-B
engines and reshaped rear side windows. Both images displayed here
were taken by Greg Banfield. Above (and rego
enlargement below, to prove it is what we say it
is!) at Bankstown in
December 1967 and the B&W at the foot of the page at
Albion Park, NSW
on 26
October 1980, with a much more presentable identification.
Formerly N4197T, it was owned
by Southbank Aviation (Pty)
Ltd of
Wollongong. It is no longer current.
