The new company also had two other models that were built for special orders, the Bellanca Model J and the Model K.
A transatlantic hopeful was the Bellanca K of 1932 which may be considered as the prototype for the P-200 Air bus. The Bellanca K c/n 117 NR4864 was originally named ‘Roma’ in connection with a proposed New York-Rome flight.
For the New York-Oslo attempt of 23 August 1932 the Model K was renamed ‘Enna Jettick’. Leaving New York, at 5.43am ‘Enna Jettick’ (piloted by Thor Solberg and Carl Petersen) reached Harbor Grace, Newfoundland, at 7pmm. The proposed landing for fuel before the transatlantic leg was frustrated by fog and the crew was forced to ditch, without injury, in Darby’s Harbor, 75 miles SW of Harbor Grace, with the loss of the Model K.
