Aircraft N121BD Photo

N121BD, 1979 Cessna 414A Chancellor, C/N: 414A0297
Locally-based 1979 Cessna 414A being moved from its tie down spot for the first time since 2009. Not airworthiness, so they had to connect a tow-bar onto a suburban then re position it to TradeWinds for LOTS of maintenance. Photo taken from the ATC tower.

Aircraft N121BD, Poor old 1979 Cessna 414A "Chancellor" getting swallowed by weeds at the south tie downs at Reid Hillview Airport, San Jose, CA. If only I could see it MOVE.... Be sure to check my future photos of N121BD, hopefully you figured out the hint., at KRHV, photo by Chris Leipelt

Aircraft N121BD, Locally-based 1979 Cessna 414A with a fresh new wash (first one since 2009) and new tires. Engines remain the same, and TradeWinds did a start up on them to see how they ran. It was rough, but hey, at least it started!, at KRHV, photo by Chris Leipelt

Aircraft N121BD, Locally-based 1979 Cessna 414A in a new parking spot on the Tradewinds ramp for maintenance. It will be a big job to fix it up since it hasn't flown since 2009, but I heard that TW started it up the other day, and it ran OK with the same engines., at KRHV, photo by Chris Leipelt
