Airframe identity not confirmed. The Tamil Eelam Air Force had a small number of light aircraft and ultra lights which were used during the civil war in the 2000s. Two Tamil Tiger Zlin 143 were lost during an attack on Colombo on 20 February 2009. One aircraft flew into a tax office building, whereas the other (905) was shot down by anti-aircraft fire near the international airport of Colombo. What is left of it is now at the Sri Lanka Air Force Museum.

Delivered just a few weeks earlier from Horizon in Australia (my shot of A6-ABM gives a summary history of this interesting frame). By virtue of being a very active SLAF transport base, this was one difficult place to visit for photography. The airport was built in 1934 as Colombo's first terminal and served in that role until Bandaranaike (formerly RAF Negombo) was opened on the other side of the city in 1967

One of nine of this Chinese workhorse delivered to Sri Lanka in 1986, of which two were lost in 1997 during their service with 8 Sqn, which has also made them available to Helitours. Four more were on order. Soon after this, re-serialling in the SCL-32** range was carried out
