There is a HT-295 owners manual for sale on E-bay. A friend looked at the picture and noticed several N numbers, thinking this was different registries that the aircraft had passed through because there was only one serial number. He asked me what the status of this Helio was. he also asked about the date at the lower right corner and the Florida Museum marking at the upper right corner. You might find what I found of interest.
Anyone else have any knowledge of this manual or ideas.
c/n 1712 holds a current valid registry.
This manual definitely didn't follow a single Helio and its ownership changes.
The date Dec 1973 is when the first HT-295 was built so this probably reflects the manual being approved at the same time
I looked through 19 HT-295s and the 19 others converted to H/T-295s
I think the 1st number is N68886 c/n 1716
next N688890 c/n 1712
next N5387G c/n 1257 a U-10D converted to H/T-295
I couldn't find a number for the one in the second row except possibly N5405G c/n 1259 and the only trigear in a museum that I'm aware of.
Although this has nothing to do with the manual and but I'm really not sure, It's possible Igaal Barak bought 1259 in '03, named it Helioshark and had it with a museum
The Onion Farmer owns 1257 now.
