Pouring iced-tea in your Shrike Commander

Beautiful airplane. Almost as pretty as the Fokker 27/50, almost.

Socata Rally MS.893E
Portugal

Straight O-540’s in that. An “entry level” plane, with a little less horsepower, but with the longer wings of the 560 models.

Here is some Flight Aware info on the plane, last recorded flight was in the UK on December 29th. Engine type is noted. Link

What engines will be in that?

Where was this @RobertL18C ?

Looks like a first generation 500.

Bob Hoover (The Hoove) is the coolest of all pilots). And he is verry funny! I have once interviewed him, but what's even more funny is his Autobiography - a MUST aviation book!

As Bob modestly admits - "A great many former friends of mine are no longer with us, as they cut their margins too close......"
