Probably a Grand Caravan?

220, 221 whatever it takes

I thought it was the brewery, bummer...

Damn... me too. I saw this and got excited for a bit.

Which begs the question -- why do you need retractable gear time? I would hope that wouldn't be necessary.

I have family that works at the company. They seem to treat their people very well. They retro fit airframes for various contracts. Last I heard they were converting caravans into mini gunships, possibly for drug war stuff.

Oh that kind of Cessna Grand Turbine! Now I get it! The kind with rockets, camouflage paint, door gunner and flame thrower, a couple of RPG's... plus maybe some smoke bombs! Why didn't they just say so?

No matter how cool the retrofit is, the fact that it isn't for the brewing company ruins it all.
