    Citation N7TK at Cork Airport
    Posted by: aerspace | January 30, 2011


    A regular if infrequent visitor to Ireland is Cessna 501 citation registered N7TK. The aircraft is registered to Timothy Mellon, great grandson of Thomas Mellon, founder of Mellon Bank. The aircraft was built in 1979 and carries msn 501-0116. The aircraft carried an unusual colour scheme which is reminiscent of a maritime SAAR scheme with its red fuselage band. More frequently seen in Shannon the aircraft visited Cork on January 21 last and was pictured by Paul Daly during its layover.
