Cessna 425 Conquest I N425BS
(c/n 425-0210)
When the Cessna 425
was first introduced it was named the Corsair. The Cessna 441 was
the
Conquest. However, following an
upgrade to the Corsair's landing gear which increased its all
up weight to 8,600
lbs Cessna began calling the "new" model the Conquest I, and the
original 441s
were renamed Conquest
II. I believe that all the 425s have since been
retroactively upgraded
and hence, to all
intents and purposes, the name Corsair is now longer used (at least in
the US).
The 425 is basically a
turboprop 421 Golden Eagle. This nice image of a Conquest I was
taken
by Harry T. Chang at
Wilmington NC International Airport in Mayl 2007.
