Hi everybody,

Today in Lausanne I took pictures for you of the Blecherette airport's new resident, T6 SNJ-78231. And of course the famous Charlie's heavy, the Avenger.

As there were only 6 SNJ-7s, I don't think this is one of them.

Doesn't the only existing one belong to David Gilmour of Pink Floyd?(Bu No. 90678?)

Lausanne; no it's not a SNJ-7
