The Ancient Aeroport Militaire (Bowen Field) still held remnants of the former Haiti Air Force, after it became the largest camp for Internally Displaced Persons (IDP) following the earthquake in 2010. The entire camp was cleared by 2013. Ex N300D and still marked as such on the tail, this Beech B50 was found in a sorry state. It is the second use of serial 1269 and is likely an impounded drug runner. It wears both COHATA titles on its tail, as well as an Haitian air force roundel on the rear fuselage.
