Built as a E18S in 1956, this Beech 18 was converted to a Super Turbo Tradewind in 1966. Ministic Air bought it from Union Flights (N25SM) in January 1991. Unfortunately the aircraft undershot an approach in poor weather and impacted a frozen lake at Little Grand Rapids, MB on May 2, 1992. Wreckage was recovered from the lake by K & K Aircraft and taken to Bridgewater, VA as a source of parts.
