Aero Commander 500S Shrike Commander
The 500S Shrike Commander was approved by the FAA in March 1968 in the normal and utility categories, the latest 500 on the Commander data sheet. Two Lycoming IO-540-E1A5 or IO-540-E1B5 piston engines of 290 horsepower turn propellers 80 inches across. The data sheet gives a maximum weight of 6,750 lb, or 3,062 kg, seven seats, with eight allowed on some airplanes, and 156 US gallons of usable fuel in five connected tanks. The earlier Commander 500s share its ICAO code, AC50. No source read gives its dimensions, speeds or ceiling, so this page has no drawing.
