Who have any images/photos/profiles of Beechcraft C-45F Expeditor airplanes, which were registered in Greece as SX-ADG and SX-EAB ?
I shall pleased to see some of those images.
SX-EAB and SX-ADG were the same plane (c/n: 8252). It was used by Hellenic CAA as SX-EAB from October 1951 to March 1965 and then sold to Athens Aeroclub as SX-ADG.
If I'll find any photos I'll let you know.
Thank You for Your rapid answer !
Sorry, but I did not know about the fact, that those C-45s was ONE aircraft...
And, of course, I shall pleased to see any image of it.
I can recall (or at least I have the impression) that one Beech A/C was on display on a small fenced quarter near Vouliagmenis avenue (Argyroupoli) along with one C-119 (or Noratlas?) and a helicopter as an ADVERTISEMENT for an aircraft-technician training school (OMEGA or DELTA ?)
I assume they have all been scrapped when a multistory house has been erected sometime in the 1980s !
