The report you posted only had a registration number not a serial number. Don't know about charter outfits in Kenya but it could be that the 5Y- number could be assigned to that company and it was just rolled over to a new/different airframe. Airlines do it all the time. Some of our N numbers (old Continental) you could trace back to 707s, Vicounts, Martins and such. Some of them even crashed or were involved in accidents/incidents too. Basically an N number or registration number w/o a serial number to go along with it is almost worthless. A just for fun one, although not to funny. N70775 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continent ... _Flight_11 (does the story sound familiar?) Looks like it was rebuilt as a Bell 206B http://flightaware.com/resources/registration/N70775

They've been on eBay several times over the last two years. There was a 340 in the back of the hangar as well. I don't remember the details from the eBay ads, but it was something to the effect that they were estate sale planes when the original owner died recently. Family didn't know what to do with them.
