Ovidiu thanks. Good to have some feedback.

I heard that this (2199) had gone by Jun-11?

Steve

"My" 217 was brought to Rosiorii de Vede from Craiova on August 4th, 2011, in very bad shape, it was kind of re-built and painted to be opened o september 2nd last year. Photos can be seen on this forum. No engines, no weapons, no seat, and now no Pitot tubes. And soon no plane, they say, as it is going to be moved in the yard of a hospital, on the place of the old military airfield near the town.

Zilele trecute am reusit sa vizualizez din avion IAR-ul AG-6 de la Aerostar. Inca poarta inmatricularea YR-BGX si este vopsit diferit de culorile initiale, galben cu verde.
Acum doar in culorile originale
