BEECH 18 PRODUCTION LIST – PART ONE: PREWAR CIVIL BEECH 18 PRODUCTION and CIVILIANISED WWII MILITARY PRODUCTION ( AT-7/ AT-11 / C-45 / SNB- / JRB- / Expediter ) Includes museum aircraft and late military survivors Compiled by Geoff Goodall

Compiler’s note: These listings are based on references to the Beech 18 range of aircraft gained from a wide variety of sources: official Government Civil Registers of numerous countries as well the standard aviation historian journals of Air Britain, Aviation Letter, AMCAR etc. - Detailed FAA aircraft file extracts are thanks to Garry L. Killion and Robert K. Parmerter, to whom I am most grateful. Canadian DoT file extracts are thanks to Terry Judge, who transcribed many files to assist this project. - Special thanks to Gordon Reid of Melbourne, Australia for much additional information from his travels in North America tracking down surviving Beech 18 models, checking of manufacturer plates and discussions with their owners. John Chapman contributed his detailed loggings of Beech 18s around the world since 1960 to date. - US owners 1963-1972 are extracted from published FAA Civil Registers and Canadian Civil Registers held by the compiler. - Registrations presented as (1 or (2 refer to that registration being used on other Beech 18 types only. Since these listings were published on this website, the following have responded with valuable information and photographs: Paul Veenboer, Mike Skerritt, Rolf Larson, Tom Kalina, Aad van der Voetand, Steve Williams, Bertus Scholten, John Whitehead, Carl Winnefeld, Rolf Keller, Kevin Kuhl and Terry Fletcher. I thank you all. These lists make numerous references to the highly recommended definitive book describing the Beech 18

series manufacture, models, engines, performance and general history: Beech 18 by Robert K. Parmerter, published 2004 by Twin Beech 18 Society: A4 hard cover, 567 pages. *

Nearing destination attached by a lone Zero. Shot down by Japanese fighter en route to Del Monte, Mindanao, crash landing in jungle near Malabaybalay, Lanao near Mindanao. Gunn unhurt. Note: confirmed USAAC practice at that time was to allocate interim identities for aircraft impressed or taken over by US 5th Air Force, using the aircraft’s c/n or previous military serial number. A subsequent listing of US 5th Air Force aircraft quotes: 41-222 as Beech C-45 “assembled Brisbane 2.6.42” which is clearly incorrect. 6.2.42 radiogram from USAFIA to ABDACOM listing all USAAC Air Transport Command aircraft includes three Beechcraft: 41222, 41264, and 41432.

reported destroyed on ground Darwin by Japanese raid A Darwin RAAF Station memo the day after the 19 February raids states 23 allied aircraft losses: (verbatim) " - 3 Catalinas (USN), 2 on harbour and 1 near Bathurst Island - 10 Kittyhawks (USAAF): 8 in the air, 2 on the ground - 1 B-24 (USAAF) - 6 Hudsons (RAAF) - 1 Tiger Moth (RAAF) or Moth Minor unconfirmed - 3 transport aircraft (USAAF) - 2 Beechcrafts flown from Philippines by Cpt.

In fact the third USAAF transport aircraft at Bathurst Island was Douglas C-53 41-20051 "TG51". Note: confirmed USAAC practice at that time was to allocate interim identities for aircraft impressed or taken over by US 5th Air Force, using the aircraft’s c/n or previous military serial number. note: N9800H quoted as "432": but it was AF-432 433

publications Brisbane 1981: "Les Thiess had John Peden negotiate with M.R.Hornibrook, that other dominating figure in the post-war construction business in Queensland. Hornibrook had seized an opportunity of buying a Beechcraft 18. It had done very little flying, been used by an American admiral departing the Pacific scene, and Peden found that Hornibrook was prepared to sell - at a price. Les didn't quibble, the sophisticated twin engine 7 passenger aircraft, equipped for instrument flying, the first executive plane of its kind in Australia, costing very nearly as much as a DC-3, joined Thiess. Les had Progress II painted on its fuselage, made an arrangement with ANA to hangar and service it at Eagle Farm and to supply two pilots to alternate flying the aircraft, fitting in with their ANA hours." First ANA pilot was Stan Johnson, then Ernie Girault who was later employed by Thiess Brothers as a company pilot. VH-BJJ carried Thiess personnel to open cut coal mines at Biloela and Blair Athol in Queensland and Muswellbrook NSW. Also did trips to Milne Bay, New Guinea, and Solomon Islands Registration Application by Thiess Brothers, requesting registration VH-LCT (Leslie Thiess' initials). DCA declined due too far ahead of registration allocation sequence and required a VHB registration. Because Thiess Brothers had an Avro Anson VH-BDD, they selected BJJ repaired by Qantas at Brisbane-Archerfield DCA report on the repair states "damage has occurred at a very critical part of the structure." CofA inspection underway at Archerfield by Aircrafts Pty Ltd Leslie Thiess writes to DCA advising that Thiess hold the US Navy logbooks but that the cost of obtaining certification data from Beechcraft is "prohibitive". He states that they have found the manufacturer loath to assist because their aircraft "is war surplus and not representative of the latest model" testflown Archerfield by APL pilot Mitchell Australian CofA issued, fitted for 5 passengers Thiess Brothers Pty Ltd, Brisbane QLD named “Progress II” entered service with Thiess, maintained by ANA tailwheel collapsed on landing, MelbourneEssendon VIC VH-BJJ noted Mildura VIC titles "Thiess Bros Excavators and General Contractors" Connellan Airways, Alice Springs NT (Civil Register quotes change of ownership 8.7.57, Eddie Connellan’s personal listing of his company’s fleet shows VH-BJJ purchased 11.56) Connellan Airways, Alice Springs NT undercarriage failed to lock, wheels-up landing, Alice Springs-Townsite aerodrome NT Accident report 21.12.58: starboard undercarriage failed to lock down: no injuries, Captain W.A.Wood; inadequate lubrication of undercarriage mechanism prevented the starboard undercarriage being locked

An otherwise uneventful comparatively leisurely flight out was marred only by a bird strike near Habbaniyah, Iraq. The Beech hit an eagle, which caused considerable damage to the nose of the aircraft, compelling a hold-up at Iraq for repairs.

Beech construction numbers MD-1 to MD-26 were given to an order for new-build SNB-5 models for the Kon Marine Royal Netherlands Naval Air Service and French Navy/Aeronavale. Unlike the US Navy’s SNB-5s, which were rebuilt by Beech using airframes of earlier model US Navy stocks, these were new aircraft. All were allocated US Navy serial numbers. They were basically new civil D18S models with military modifications. Beechcrafter magazine for 5 March 1953 quotes "parts which are ordinarily rebuilt for the SNB-5 had to be made from scratch for the foreign planes, with tooling equipment which had not been used for a number of years." Radio equipment and wiring was also different from US Navy SNB-5 and some structural changes had to be made. RNNAS received 6 SNB-5s delivered under USN Mutual Defense Assistance Pact (MDAP) 1953/54, to contract 51-1085 for use as navigation trainers with 5 Squadron at Valkenburg, They were shipped to Netherlands between 20.3.53 to 30.6.53 and all remained with 5 Squadron until it was disbanded on 28 January 1974 at Valkenburg. They had been re-serialled 080 to 085 on 15.11.59, redesignated TC-45J when the US Navy redesignated their SNB-5s in 1962. The 20 French Navy new-build SNB-5s were ordered and paid for by the US Navy under Mutual Defense Assistance Pact (MADP). Aeronavale received their 19 SNB-5s between 23.5.53 to 25.6.53.
