Taxiing out for the 2010 Independence Parade over Mexico City, PC-7 2512 is one of 88 PC-7s delivered to Mexico. It was delivered as EAP-512 and later reserialled to 2512, indicating use as an attack aircraft. It is seen here with a large badge of EA201 on the tail, Mexico's famous squadron, which fought alongside the Allies to liberate the Philippines in World War II. This aircraft was retired and is now preserved at Santa Lucia. This photo is copyright © Wim Sonneveld, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
