On display in the SWIFT FUELS tent, near the AOPA TENT. This low time, nicely equipped and meticulously maintained Super G18S Beechcraft is at the top of its class and is ready for the most discriminating buyer. It is among the very best of the remaining Twin Beech’s and is eager to please a new owner for years to come.

 A SEARCH FOR THE BEST: “Twin Beech” and “Stoltzfus” have been synonymous since 1963 when an ex-Navy SNB-5 joined the family and became the first of many from an AT-11 and JRB-4 of the C18S series, to an H18S, including a fleet of Hamilton Westwind III turboprops.

   After operating these aircraft for tens of thousands of hours, the late Karl D. Stoltzfus of Dynamic Aviation (previously K&K Aircraft) knew exactly what he wanted in his final Twin Beech acquisition.

   He finally found it in G18S, N18G (then N565US), the pampered, low-time, “never a freighter” Beech that he was looking for. Regal, beautiful but not glamorous, this was a practical airplane that he could let his grandkids or friends touch and ride in without worrying about fingerprints or snack crumbs. He bought it in 2019, and since then it has earned the affection of everyone at Dynamic who has been privileged to engage with it.

   A “Twin Beech” like few others today, and named “Amelia” because of her role with Nauticos in their search for the Amelia Earheart crash site, N18G has fulfilled its assignment at Dynamic Aviation and awaits its next proud owner.
