Jerry,
I will talk to my uncle and see what he knows. I thought he was the only one in VT with Beech 18's

That's cool Bob.
I don't really need a scan of but thanks.
I was poking around the internet and saw that that C-45 was with Pilgrim AL and I didn't know that they used Twin Beech's.
I was kind of wondering if the aircraft is still with us, either static, stored or flying?
Jerry
