This very unusual looking ‘civilian’ aircraft N44U payed a visit to Norwich over the weekend ! …. rumours and feedback from others say it is a little secret ??

Thank you all gentlemen ! I think you are all skirting round the issue ! It’s just a young mans ‘rendition’ of a Beechcraft King Air 200 …. look at the two ‘blue’ lights on the front, very stylish roof box and about twenty four ‘bee sting’ aerials …. cool ?

When you said unusual civilian Keith I thought for a moment you were referring to your good self.
The question here though is what is the secret? Perhaps all those lumps and bumps festooning this aircraft are just there to make us THINK it’s secret?
Do the US Army buy second hand aircraft? I don’t know but a certain Company registered in Virginia has a track record of buying and operating second hand machines. If I remember correctly, around forty years ago, a STOL aircraft could be bought for as much as a single US Dollar! As long as you worked for a certain Virginia based Company of course.

The plane was in Stuttgart last year. It is registered to a company in Virginia. 😉
