One of the more bizarre flying display teams I ever saw flew a Broussard, as well as a pair of Colomban Cri-Cri's.
Sadly, I don't think I ever got a photo of them...

#Beechcraft #KingAir RU-21 #turboprop #airplane at #Orlando Executive Airport #KORL. Beechcraft has manufactured airplanes for decades, now doing business as #Textron. This King Air RU-21 airplane powered by 2 #PrattandWhitney PT6A-20 #engines with 550 #horsepower each.
The #US #Army had some RU-21’s modified for #SIGINT work in support of Central American #rebels and anti-#drugtrafficking operations. Some also served in the #GulfWar. They were #retired from service in 1993.
This Beechcraft King Air RU-21 was on display at KORL while the #HurricaneHunters had a demonstration at the #airport.
