Sorry, been distracted of late watching the Rangers advance to the Championship series. Best baseball they have played in years.
 
Hi DHC2pilot, that was fast! :icon29:

I have as date of FF 2 August 1968. Will need to check this.
Also recently read that in company docs this aircraft was initially referred to as the Model 9KCAB (which I guess would have made some sense). Ever heard of that, or better, anyone can confirm this?

you have control, Sir!
 
The Nov. '68 Air Progress states that the aircraft made it's first flight "...last august 2nd", which to me means August 2nd of '67, however they could have meant '68. 9KCAB would be correct - fat fingered that one.
