Conroy Super Turbo Three N156WC
Conroy Super Turbo Three N156WC. The second RR Dart powered conversion by Conroy was a surplus Douglas R4D-8-C-117D and was called the Super Turbo Three. Unlike the first conversion, the Dart engines were mounted in the rear part of the engine nacelle. Due to the small diameter of the Viscount propellers, airflow was restricted by the bulky nacelles and landing gear fairings. This caused the take-off distance to be 6000 feet, making it unappealing as a commuter aircraft. The aircraft ended up parked at Groton-New London Airport in Groton, Connecticut where on 19 February 1984 its cockpit was hit by a wing from a Trans American Lockheed L-100 Hercules. Date: 1970s
