In the post-war years the Swiss Air Force operated 40 ex-R.A.F. Harvards. Can anyone suggest any sites that might have more information on these aircraft.
At least 4 of them were used filming “Where Eagles Dare” in Austria (Aigen im Ennstal) and afterwards scrapped in 1968. I do not know if they were airworthy prior to the film, but I doubt it. They were only used as static Fw 190 look alikes (3 blade prop). I have seen them being hauled away to the scrapyard.
