  • The single engine Comanche was a great aeroplane. Cant say that for the twin version. 

  • Beautifully done! Thanks so much for sharing with all of us. Con regard, Tomato, Tucson, Arizona

  • Just bought a 65 260 GTO LOVE IT!!!! Flying to El Paso saturday!! I want to post video's soon

  • Perfect audio track. I agree with LethalHobo; I could look at Comanche pictures all day as well. Best plane ever made.

  • my friend  brought one back from US to AUS new 70

    -Can assure everyone that what LYCOMING0540 said is spot on

    ............wonderful aircraft, nice balance

  • Whats the Audio track called?

  • ......its actually called APACHE written by Jerry Lordan and recorded by the uk based HANK B MARVIN and THE SHADOWS June 1960 master of the FENDER STRATOCASTER guitar (he owned the first one in britain)

    arguably this track set the sound for surf music

    ala stratocaster guitar and precision bass drums and plenty of reverb and a little whammy bar :-)

  • I could look at comanche pictures all day. My grandfather owns a 250, white and blue. It's a hell of an aircraft, very beautiful too. My hands still smell like areoshell grease number 5 :)

  • I have only seen one of these in my time up close. It looks very roomy and sleek. I would love to fly one some day. What kind of cruise speed do they achieve?

  • cruise with manifold set at 23 inches, and prop pitched back to 2400 rpm on our commanche 260b is about 150 knots or 180 mph. its a fast comfortable nice airplane.

  • sleek,fast,great load carrier and very powerful. Brilliant aircraft. With 260hp and variable pitch prop, the acceleration is phenomenal.
