New member from Scottsdale

[Hafast]

Hi all,
New guy from Scottsdale, I'm the caretaker and pilot of N6224X, a 1961 500B Shrike conversion based at KSDL. Hopefully I can learn a thing or two from the knowledge base on this forum. I've been flying it since the current owner purchased it in 2012 and have approximately 500 hours in it so far. I've had it all over the place, but most of my trips lately have been to Cabo, Vegas area, and Southern California. Some of you might recognize it from the Twincommander.com website, we did a photo shoot over Lake Powell in 2015 for them.
Thanks,
Brian

Here are 23 photos from the shoot.

Wow, awesome pictures and welcome to the forum.  With 500 hours in it we might just learn some stuff from you. :-)

Welcome, Brian!  I am a 500B guy, too.  Been flying mine since February of 2006.  Glad you are joining us!

Nice photos.  That photo shoot must have been some fun.  My 500B could use some new paint.  Do you know who painted your bird?  Welcome to the group.

Thanks everyone!

The paint was done by Master Aircraft Services in Wickenburg Arizona back in 2008. Call Gus at 928-684-4926, he's a great guy, I think he does a great paint job at a fair price.
