| Subject: | Re: Mr RPM "Turbo 800" 680FLP on ebay |
That is right Berry, the company I worked for bought it from Avco and Dick
Wartinger and I did the Mr. RPM conversion about 1976. I have some great
pictures of it as N222AD and N700KC.
Avco used it to transport celebrities who were appearing on the Phil
Donahue show. The aircraft log book have the every flight Avco made and who was
on it. Some of the names include, Bob Hope, Phyllis Diller, The Four
Freshman, Maria Von Trapp etc. I flew it 600 to 800 hours I think. and flew it
with both IGSO-540's and IO-720's. The fastest I ever got it to go was 215
kts at FL210
