Photo Comment

Before being ferried to the USA this aircraft, which still carried its former Spanish Air Force serial T3-40 on the fin, was once briefly, (April 1978 - January 1980), registered G-BFPW and parked at Blackbushe. After service with a number of small operators in Florida it was parked at Fort Lauderdale in 1988 until being acquired by Basler of Oshkosh in May 1991, but after corrosion was found on the airframe it was parted out for spares the following year.
