BTW - it was still airworthy in 1999!

If you Google on the US registration N9562Z, you come 
up with a C45G-AF12, the military designation of the 
Twin Beech Expeditor.

I recognised it immediately - it was one of my 
favourite 1/72 scale plane models I built as a kid - I 
remeber it particularly well because I had a hell of a 
job getting the twin tailplanes to stay parallel until 
they were glued.

Cheers
Douglas
