mr2mk1g 10 #1 July 22, 2003 Has anyone ever jumped a Beverley or know anything about them? I guess Im going to be talking to old timer military jumpers here as they died out in the 60's. Seems to be a great plane though, basically a SkyVan on drugs. See attached pics - used to carry 2 light tanks or 70 paratroopers (inc 30 in the tail section!) Ive been in one in a museum and the pilots sit above you an a second floor to allow for more cargo space in and out of the rear exit. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I get the feeling that if you were on the upper level and the last to get out, you would walk back to the DZ. “- - Sumo is the greatest of sports. It has power, grace, speed and cluture.
