Help with research
Hi, this was the best NG I could find for my question, but if there's a
better one to ask this in just name it and I'll go away. I don't know much about aircrafts, but I'm trying to find a few models that fit a certain specification. All I need to know are a couple names of smaller airplanes that would be used for commercial purposes like tourism, sky diving, or flying short routes and would've been in use in 1970. The more common mass-produced models are preferable over more exotic aircrafts or those with very limited production runs. I tried researching this myself, but if you don't know what you're looking for there's just too much information to go through. I don't really need that much information though, just anything that anyone can name off-hand and with the aircraft's name I can figure everything else out from there. TIA. |

Beechcraft Queen Air
Cessna 206 Stationair Cessna 210 Centurion Cessna 208 Caravan (should fall in that period also) The Cessna 208 Caravan didn't fly until the mid-80s, at roughly the same time the Cessna piston singles went off the market. The other 3 planes all existed in the 70s. |

I was able to find almost everything I needed within about ten minutes with those names, and before I had spent close to three hours without coming up with anything. |
