Piper PA23 Twin-Stinson

This was the designation of the prototype PA23 Apache which was designed with a twin tail. Difficult to imagine, has anyone got a photo?

That’ll do nicely thanks. Guess you can see the genesis of the Apache. 🙂

I see the Apache…but I can’t see much Stinson.
Wonder if the airfoil or wing has any similarity to the postwar 108 series?

A great photo by the (then) well known (in America) general aviation journalist/photographer Hans Greonhoff.
