Could anyone help Doug on info about DC-7C N774R in ref to titles
"the Beach Boys and Igor" ?
I noticed that Herman's Hermits leased the DC-7 in 1968 and it's quite
possible of course that it was leased more ofetn in that field as the next
reference concerns Bertair Inc in 1972 (Piston Engine Airlines Prod. List,
TAHS 1991).
To save Doug from possible spamming, plse reply to me and I'll forward
the email; many thanks
Ruud
