alan2 Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 The members Of Civilian Registered Aircraft Preservation Society (CRAPS) are proud to announce the custodianship of the still awesome Howard 500 by Milton Shupe and mates. To honour the day a flight was taken around Coulandra.....Bonus pics!! ......... In the 1950s, Dee Howard, and his legendary mechanic, Ed Swearingen, pioneered executive transportation with their conversions of military bombers. Seeking the ultimate in radial engine pressurized business transport, Dee relentlessly pushed his crown jewel, the Howard 500, to production. The Howard 500 was put into service in 1963. It was the last radial engine passenger transport built. Dee built 17 Howard 500s for a select Who's Who of industry and entertainment. Today, pilot after pilot, mechanic after mechanic, approaches and walks around N500HP with reverence and respect. http://howard500.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
