    1964

    Around this time there appears to be some confusion - N8834K c/n 108-1834 is reported as exported to Venezuela and is confirmed as being registered 1963 thru 1974 as YV-T-RTB - N97934 is Stinson 108-0834 and shown on the 1964 and 1965 January registered as such, but then its c/n changes to 108-1834 and is reported (wrongly ) that way right up to the present day.
