The Twin Beech (Beechcraft Model 18) is a legendary twin-engine aircraft introduced in 1937, known for its versatility and reliability. Originally designed as a civilian airliner, it quickly found success in both commercial aviation and military applications during World War II, where it served as a transport, reconnaissance, and bomber trainer. The Twin Beech’s rugged design and ability to operate from shorter runways made it a favorite among pilots. Its longevity in service, both in military and civilian roles, cemented its place as one of the most iconic aircraft of the 20th century.
