Love that plane! Thanks for posting.

I am sure I've seen one coming over the city of Gouda, The Netherlands, in the summer of 2007, at 600 feet. The sound is the same. I always thought it was a new design and loved it.

I have read that. I read if the weight of the flaps was taken away the landing speed may only be a few knots difference. I also read they beefed the frame up and that increased the original design by 2500 lb.
Would of been a much nicer machine in it's original config. Could probably certify it theses days as the original design.

Actually, it is only a couple of knots with the weight -- take away the weight, and we might save some speed/tires on landing. You are correct that it was around 2500 lbs of added weight when all was said and done.
The orig. spec was a 350 KTAS aircraft, FL410, sub 12,500 lbs, and 2500 nm best range aircraft. What we ended up with was a 337 KTAS, FL410 (and we are very slow up there), 14,900 lbs MTOW, and 1250 nm on a good day.

Yeah other than the problem designing flaps in the Cans, they certainly make me want to build a simple one running off 50 horses.

We really don't need flaps -- that was an FAA thing. Our flaps only come down 7 degress, change landing speed by 5 to 10 knots depending on weight, and only change takeoff roll by about 200 feet. They're pretty worthless in my opinion.

I thought Beech bought all remaining units & destroyed them a few years back(flying magazine from maybe 2003??). Good to know a few are still out there.

Raytheon never bought any of them back -- big misunderstanding in the aviation community. Most Starships were leased, and when they came in on lease maturity, that is when RAC got em. There are 5 flying, and we have a 6th that is complete minus engines that legally could go back into the air.

Very cool -- excellent company with a great aircraft (PC-12).
