Hello All,
I am trying to track down any photographic record of I.A.C. Martinet 145either in service, during storage or eventual scrapping. Any leads or advice would be most welcome.
Kind regards,
Tim

Tony / Thunderbird167 / wiessoo,
Many thanks for the replies and information, as always it is appreciated, Tony I would certainly be interested in a scan of 145 as this is a new one to me.
I believe there are a number of photos in existence of 145 in store at Baldonnel but the only one I have seen is this recent e-bay find.
Regards,
Tim

Hello Tim,
The Martinet 145 was delivered to the Air Corps at Baldonnel on 21 July 1946 and last flew in December 1958. I have attached a picture of Martinet 145.
Tim, I believe that I have your e mail address and I will send on a higher res scan and details to you in the next few days.
Regards
Tony K
