Ras Nielsen has owned this beautiful Beech 18 since the 1960s. He stopped by Iqaluit on a refuelling stop on a trip from Seattle, Washington to the Stauning Air Rally in Denmark in May of 2007. This airplane really turned heads here in Iqaluit.

You can read the story of their adventure on his blog, which also has some great pictures of the trip. Click HERE and HERE, as well as on the picture at the left for more views of the Beech. (photos courtesy of John Graham).
