This plane N345GS is based out of Opa Locka Airport along with it's other siblings Covairs C- 131F N342GS and N343GS . They fly by my house almost every day between Opa Locka airport and the Bahamas Islands, mostly to Nassau.

Cool plane

[@mrman7084]

Niiiiice and a nice change of pace! I am so use to seeing these as 580's with the Allison Turboprops, seeing this is a treat!

[@johnnyrocco]

For years I follow N24DR on FlightAware flying cargo out of south Texas but then one morning after flying all night it came up short at Toledo OH. Lost two pilots and a great old bird. I still think about it a lot.

[@SKBenergy]

wow that is sad, these seem to be some awesome workhorse of a prop for there time, this bird came and headed back to Miami which was a long flight !!!

[@dominiqueroudier9401]

It,s a rare plane with his original radial piston engines PrattWhitney R2800.with 2500hp each. Not converted with T56 turbo prop engines It,s a Convair 340 former ex USnavy called: USAF désignation C131F R4Y-1 Buaer 141008 s/n 291 Delivered 30 novembre 1955👍👍

Conquest Cargo's three C-131s (CV-340/440) are now the very last three piston-powered Convairliners actively operating anywhere in the world! There are no active CV-240, -300, -540, -600, -640, C-131, or T-29 airplanes. There are about two dozen turboprop-powered CV-580s and CV-5800s still flying.

[@SKBenergy]

[@dillonk6110]

A new understanding of the term, “ slow climb out”, lol

[@cliby25]

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 same thing I said while watching it take off this morning. like it took forever to get to 1700ft.

[@OfficialMandoJ]

🥺😍❤️

[@josecarlosramos4327]

And these piston planes are few like this, most with piston engines are the DC-3 and some fighters from the Second World War

[@aaronaustrie]

Ancient and still going

[@daddygates8290]

Anyone else was wandering if they were going to flare...lol

[@aaronaustrie]

This plane looks 1950s or 60s era to me
