Photo Comment

Ex N3096A, this illicit crop sprayer was delivered to the US Department of State on 10 September 1993, later it went to Colombia to start its work as PNC-3065. It was first noted written from use in June 2008. It was fitted with the tail of PNC-0270 and used as a travelling exhibit in 2013 and 2015 and often quoted with that serial, although the cockpit plate reveals its real identity as PNC-3065. PNC-0270 was noted dumped at Mariquita on the same day, without its tail.
