Photo Comment

Delivered to the Flugwaffe on 20 May 1983. This red trainer was upgraded to NCPC-7 by September 2008 with a new glass cockpit, GPS, auto pilot and a second VHF radio. Together with this upgrade, the trainers received a red/white colour scheme. After each upgrade, a Swiss PC-7's was redesignated to NCPC-7 (NC = New Cockpit). This designation lasted until 2009 when the last of 28 PC-7's was modified. Because they were all having the same standard from that moment, the fleet was again redesignated into just PC-7 again.
