 It
is with great joy Mr. Elpie Paras reports that his beautiful STOL UC-1
Twin Bee, RP-C27043 (s/n 015), successfully made her first test flight
in The Phillippines on 03 February 2004!
The test pilot was Capt. Leo D. Yosalina, who is one of very
few amphibian rated CAA test pilots in The Philippines. Capt.
Yosalina reported no problems. Congratulations Elpie!
The test flight was made from Cagayan de Oro Airport
- Lumbia, CDO. Cagayan de Oro City has a population of more than 430 K,
and is located along the central coast of Northern Mindanao.
The city serves as the center of the Philippines'
administrative Region X, which includes the provinces of Camiguin,
Bukidnon, Misamis Oriental and Misamis Occidental.
RP-C2730 is ex N9506U, and was purchased by Elpie on
a government auction in 2000. More
