Air Spray Invaders

Post by Siddley Hawker »

I had a request from a friend in the US for info on an A26 that may be for sale in Red Deer. I assume if such a beast exists it would be one of the ex-Air Spray machines. Has anybody any info on this? Thanks in advance.

I've been drooling over this ad for a while now. Cheep to buy, but unfortunately it doesn't include a fuel truck.

There is quite a selection parked on the north side of YQF, some complete, others in various states. One just flew out this fall, I was lucky enough to be in the area at the time.

One of them is probably C-GTOX. (Tanker 14)

It was used a flying test bed for the Garrett AiResearch TPE331.

Those machines would look great on floats. Can you imagine?
