Aero Commander
100 N5559M
(c/n 096)
The Aero Commander line of single-engine aircraft began in
1965 when Rockwell Standard
acquired both the Meyers
Aircraft Company and Volaircraft, Inc. The former company
was
building the Meyers
200B (which became the Aero Commander 200) whilst Volaircraft were
in limited production of
their model 1050. This production was continued by Rockwell as the
Aero Commander
100. Production ceased somewhere around 1969. My
shot illustrates this
1967 model at Long Beach in
1968. It appears to have a ding on the rudder. This machine
is
still on the
register.
