Preserved at a roundabout near the site of the former Kandara airport in Jeddah. It's in fair condition, but without any registration or markings. The Twin Beech was abandoned at the old airport in 1969, and was serving as a gate guard to the airport by 1980. The old Kandara airport was closed circa 1981 and had been largely built over by 2000. But the Beech 18 remained at the same location, and as such it ended up in downtown Jeddah without being moved. By 1999 it had been placed on display on a plinth at a nearby roundabout.
