Hi All,
Great photos, i work at YSBK, it is so much quieter now than 20 years ago, so many aircraft aren't there anymore....
Anyhow, here are the links to more details about each aircraft.

Here is a link to the list of AU
M-18's, 24 are A models, the last 10 at straight 18's and a couple of B's.
It also made me think of the late Caribou's, i was involved when they were working out how to put turbines in them, but they realized due to the CoG issues the nacelles would be 3 foot longer and the tail 6 foot longer...... would have looked extremely weird....
They dropped the idea, not because of the stretch, but the airframe couldn't handle a change from low frequency vibrations to high from the change to turbines......
Cheers
