Taxiing out for the 2010 Independence Parade over Mexico City, PC-7 2560 is one of 88 PC-7s delivered to Mexico. It was delivered as EAP-560 and later reserialled to 2560, indicating use as an attack aircraft. By the patches worn by the pilots the unit should be EA202. This aircraft was written off on 18 January 2017, when it crashed during a training flight after it departed Tuxtla Gutierrez. The aircraft impacted the ground near La Primavera, Cintalapa, Chiapas state. This photo is copyright © Wim Sonneveld, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
