Not necessarily larger. I believe the -700 goes across the country, and that is the smallest aircraft in the fleet. |

Yeah, there were people that though it was Kadaffy Duck on the tail from The triangle of death before Reagan blew up a bunch of it. |

As seen on the Discovery Channel, Mike Rowe flew back seat a couple summers ago in this Husky.
Nice private plane, a Cessna 185!

Was up North at home this last weekend when that Beaver was taking off at Lake Hood and got caught in a cross wind and crashed into a fence. Had a family of four and two dogs on board, nobody hurt from what I heard, but the floats and wings look like scrap, the main body of the plane looks pretty good, doubt the prop is any good...
Anyway, the Beaver was on a trailer out by where I parked my plane when I took this photo...

Poor poor Beaver, glad the people were ok. That was a old Beaver! 1950, serial number 70!
