    Notes: Probably the star visitor of the year at Victoria BC - is this circa 1960 On Mark Marketeer. It started life as A-26C Invader s/n 44-35562 before re-manufacture as above with lengthened nose, tip tanks, 11 pax interior and RH side entrance door. As a teenager, when most of the guys were dreaming of Sexy Sue, I was dreaming of having one of these, Ha!
