This is apparently the real 7511 (c/n 1217). This was its retirement paint scheme during 2005-2006. The then gate guard, s/n 7609 (c/n 1563) was painted as "7511" in exactly the same colours. That aircraft was scrapped and replaced by the real 7511 in 2012. Very confusing!

Built 1964, to F-GNFJ, I-FRUL and converted to Aldo Pavoni PAV-313B in South Africa becoming ZU-RMF

Previously coded 68-SO. Operated by EH 3/67 and leaving the Salon du Bourget with visitors.

The Heeresfliegerwaffenschule still used about forty Alouettes II for basic helicopter training. They didn't leave the active service before 2006.

Preserved at this time within Base Aérienne 101. Transferred in 1998 to CAEA museum located at Bordeaux-Mérignac.

Wearing special color scheme to celebrate the very last Alouette II flight within French Air Force which operte it during 40 years.

On main gate. According to the first edition of "European Wrecks & Relics" there was no c/n identified other than the spurious number "131" There were 2 'real' a/c with the serial of PQ131. One had the c/n1166 which was written off and the other one was 1513.

Originally carried the Aerospatiale test registration F-WIEP. Then to PK131/PJ341 & PJ204 before becoming 7602. WFU.

This Alouette 2 was operated by the Swiss AF from 1958 until 1994. From 1994 until 2004, it was on display at the Swiss Transport Museum in Luzern. In 2004, it moved to the Clin d'Ailes museum at Payerne where it still is today.

Operated by the Porteguese Air Force, this Alouette 2 belonged to the Brigada de Trânsito (BT) which was a Portuguese special traffic force, from the Republic National Guard (GNR), which controls the traffic out of the urban areas, they can in some cases act in cities, if they catch violators in those areas. They are mainly responsible for highways and national roads traffic patrolling. Serial 9208 is former Luftwaffe 76+96, became 9208, and was sold as F-GNEA in October 1993. It was later reported at 9A-HAT (seen July 2004). Later preserved at Zadar-Zemunik, Croatia on the roof of civil terminal (seen August 2006)
