Photo Comment

Seen here in the old colours awaiting maintenance with BAF, this F27 was another Bonanza machine, delivered to them in 10.59 as N150L (later N750L). Bought by the Mauritanians in 6.74, she found herself back in the States ten years later, joining Horizon as N280PH and being converted to F27J standard. She headed south in 7.87, becoming LV-PAD and later LV-AZV with CATA. Dismantled around 2002 and fuselage/tail now at a technical college in Buenos Aires near Aeroparque
