I had one name in my mind the instant I saw that picture: Fairy Delta! Edit: Hmm, the nose is too short, maybe it's a related model?

The one in the background is definitely a Cessna.  It's hard to tell, but I don't see any wing struts, so...straight legged Cardinal?

Manufacturer is correct, but it is not Cardinal...

Was going to guess you were sitting in a Beech 18, but the pics I've found of their interiors don't match.


The Cessna looks like a 172.  Definitely a "Second Generation" Cessna as it has the swept tail and is not a straight back.

Doesn't seem to have a long enough "turtle back" for a 210 centurion.  We had one at Alaska Flying Network, but I never flew it.  It honestly looks like a 172 or 182, hard to tell from this angle.  Might also be a 175 which was a 172 with a GO300 Continental.  Almost bought one that had been re-engined with a 220hp Franklin.  Then I heard of the Franklin's rep.

Damn I KNEW I was forgetting a twin plane!  Twin Bonanza....was on the tip of my forebrain and couldn't remember the name!
