THERE WAS A COMPANY IN KALISPELL, MT THAT WAS CONVERTING SKYMASTER'S. THIS PATICULAR CONVERSION WAS A SINGLE TURBO PROP ON THE FRONT. THE COMPANY WAS LOCATED AT THE MUNICIPAL AIRPORT JUST SOUTH OF THE CITY. I WAS THERE IN ABOUT 1999 AND THEY HAD 4 OR 5 AIRFRAMES IN PIECES WITH ONE OR TWO THAT HAD BEEN STARTED FOR THE CONVERSION. ONCE THEY REMOVED THE REAR ENGINE THERE WAS A NICE AREA FOR CLUB STYLE SEATING AND BAGGAGE. NOT SURE IF THIS PROJECT EVER SUCCEEDED. I HAVE PHOTOS AND CAN NOT SEEM TO LOCATE THEM AT THIS TIME. WHEN I DO I WILL POST THEM. I HAVE NEVER SEEN OR HEARD OF ANYONE ELSE EVER SEEING THESE AIRCRAFT.
