Beechcraft 65 Queen Air
The FAA approved the Model 65 Queen Air in February 1959; its military name was L-23F. Two Lycoming IGSO-480 engines give 340 horsepower each for take-off and turn three-blade Hartzell propellers up to 93 inches across. The data sheet gives a maximum take-off weight of 7,700 lb, or 3,493 kg, and up to nine seats, two of them for the crew. The main and standard auxiliary tanks hold 178 US gallons of usable fuel, and larger auxiliary tanks were offered. No acceptable source read gives its dimensions or speeds, so this page has no drawing.
