ink.net... [...] The N number off the plane is N337DR. I read it myself off the video at http://www.klas-tv.com/ . The FAA registry shows that it is a GULFSTREAM AM CORP COMM DIV Model 695A. I am suspecting that the Rockwell/aero-commander line was bought out by Gulfstream at some point in the past, causing the Associated Press to misquote this aircraft as a G-I. But the airplane type is clearly of Rockwell lineage. Phew. I thought I'd really confused myself when I saw that footage on the news and then read Larry's post. But yes, searching for "gulfstream 695A" on Google quickly shows that your guess about Gulfstream owning the product line at some point is correct. Calling the accident aircraft a Gulfstream-I is pretty much par for the course from a group of folks that have in the past written of a twin-engine Cessna 150. Pete |
