High probability that I built the vertical stabilizer for this aircraft. I built hundreds of stabilizers at Beech in Liberal Kansas. Two guys, eight hours per unit.
@@RunwayHeading I flew the C90 in my youth. I was diagnosed with T1 diabetes in 1988 and that ended my flying career. I am glad that I found your page as I get to fly with you for a while. Many thanks from South Africa.
We weren’t that slow. 2200 miles + 2 stops + some holding when FLL was closed before we diverted. Also, I’m building hours so not running max cruise power at all.
Ten hours is pretty good, If flies commercial airliner, he probably has to commute to Sacramento or Fresno. The time spent on connecting flights and to/from airports on both ends adds up quickly to the total travel time😂

That’s awesome! Thank you for sharing
Well, I haven't watched entire vid, but what a BEAUTFUL C90. Respect!!!
Great video, enjoyed it much ! Keep em coming !
Thank you!
That is what I thought initially
I used to fly that plane in Hawaii for AMR Air
Did you stop to refuel or was it a straight flight?
Refuel at KRPH
Nice old bird.
Is your service ceiling on that 90 FL 310
It’s 30,000 I believe
What is that black device on the glare shield?
Some kind of tracker from when it was used for air ambulance I think. I never touched it
@@RunwayHeading I work for a Air Ambulance company in Brazil. Recently we've bought a King Air B200 with this device and no one knows what is it 🤣
Looks like an AOA box. Angle of attack indicator
Looks like a Spidertracks aircraft tracking device. Used to have one in a 206.
What is the distance between the two airports?
2,155 NM

Been to the Lauderdale airport many, many times…
At around 0:35,that seems like a high RPM to go to,having just started the engine.
Going to high idle for cross generator starting the left engine. No issues going right to high idle on the PT6
