Photo Comment

In the 1960s, the Deelen base/photo flight (BAFO) had 7 dark green/dark grey coloured Harvards of which B-66 was one. The photo was taken in 1967 during the farewell flight of the pilot Harm van Weerden (in front seat) over his home in Dieren. This is former RAF Harvard II FT382 (USAAF serial 43-13123), which originally had the common all yellow colour scheme. In 1968, the aircraft was sold to the USA as N8992 (with "new" msn 66-2637 due to restrictions on Canadian built Harvards). Photo Harm van Weerden.
