So there is a job available to fly this sexy beast? Sign me up. 
Haha some old timer had one of these in SGU. They flew to the bahamas off Florida once opened the door with beer cans spilling out asking if they were in Miami. Lineman were WTF?
Years ago I thought I saw some of these down in Sky Harbor on the east ramp of Cutter flying some sort of cargo

Well, maybe if they chopped the nose off and grafted it on to a queen air...

Abomination, are you kidding me? It's a Beech 18, volpar nosewheel conversion with TPE331's. If they would have left the tailwheel on it, it would be all that is man.
It destroys the be99 as far as useful load goes. A bit faster to.

And if it was worth its salt as a viable airplane, it would still be in use today. That thing is ugly as sin. Saying it's more impressive than a 99 ain't exactly a convincing argument either.
