Used by Multinational Force & Observers Force in Sinai and wearing a hybrid French Air Force c/s (ET 1/65 & MFO). It was destroyed during a dramatic crash on 6 May 2007 in Sinai during a flight between El Gorah Air Base and Santa Katarina (SKV). The pilot attempted an emergency landing on a road but collided with a truck and crashed. Unfortunately all the 9 persons on board perished. RIP.
