A Dutch NF-5A which was rarely seen! K-3071 was delivered to the Royal Netherlands Air Force on 20 Mar 1972. It overran the runway at homebase Gilze Rijen after a blow-out tyre on 2 Oct 1973. The aircraft came to a rest in a meadow and was later assessed as Damaged beyond economical repair. Two technicians, both named Nico, refurbished the NF-5A into an instructional airframe and rebaptized it into NAC-7 (Nico's Aircraft Corporation - 7). Number seven was their lucky number. After service, NAC-7 was transported to Woensdrecht and eventually scrapped at Den Dolder in Apr 1998.
