Cleaning house, I came across this one, taken in Pittsburgh, either late '70s or early '80s .... N411SA.

Curiously, it appears that N411SA had earlier been assigned to a DH 114 Heron ... !!



Apologies for the non-airliners.net standard photo.  At that time my photographic skills were nil to none.

Thats an unusual bird....good photo

The interesting thing about this N262, (the "other" 262) is that it has the Astazou turboprops.  A number of US based 262s were reengined with the ubiquitous P&W engines.

That photo is older than most of simv's members

BTW, how did you get 91,714 posts felix?!

In the late '70s/ early '80s I would travel mostly through the Caribbean, but every once in a while through Pittsburgh, where the (then) Westinghouse Electric Corproration, our parent company was located.

Allegheny Airlines (a.k.a. Agony Air) later became US Air.

I think that the Nord 262 is one of the more aesthetically pleasing designs, even if my only experience in them is in Flight Simulator...
