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?)

Hi,

Stoney is correct; it isn't a SNJ-7.

North American T-6G-NF Texan
197 - 35
52- 8231(USAF), 52-8231(FAF), HB-RCN

Regards,

Benno
