Dizzy 0 Posted July 24, 2012 Report Share Posted July 24, 2012 Not the Piper Aztec or Seneca Link to post Share on other sites
allardjd 1,853 Posted July 29, 2012 Report Share Posted July 29, 2012 The only match I can get on the paint scheme on the rudder is the PA-30 Twin Commanche, but most of them had only 2-blade props. There was a model with larger engines that had 3-blade props but those all lack the boarding step. Tough one. No guess here, just ruminating and keeping the thread alive...

allardjd 1,853 Posted July 29, 2012 Report Share Posted July 29, 2012 OK, let's take a SWAG - Piper Apache? John Link to post Share on other sites
Dizzy 0 Posted July 29, 2012 Report Share Posted July 29, 2012 Not an Apache. Earler versions of this airplane came with a different vertical stabilizer that could be seen on earler versions of singles made by the same company. Link to post Share on other sites
