That's probably your best bet, as if it's not yellow-tagged it's worthless to a Starship operator. Then again, ISTR Beech had bought them all back a few years ago as they didn't want to support the fleet; I don't know if any are still flying. http://www.craigsteffen.net/starship/ Good site of Beech Starship at OSH 2004 and 2005.

Sherer's story is one of the neatest things I've ever heard. There was a
show on the Discovery Channel about his passion. He wanted to keep his Starship so bad that he not only refused Beechcraft's offer but he bought up the entire inventory of parts. They told about his "right plane, right place, right time" story where he and his instructor simply decided to go visit Burt Rutan in the Starship because they thought he'd like to see it... and it turns into a request from Rutan to use the Starship as a chase plane. Too cool. Jim "Montblack" wrote in message ... ("Kingfish" wrote) That's probably your best bet, as if it's not yellow-tagged it's worthless to a Starship operator.
