I was sorting out some photos and came across this one that I had not annotated. I took it about 2002 in the UAE (or possibly Oman). I could not find any identification at the time. Perhaps a Pawnee, but anyone have more details?

For the same reason the partially state-owned http://www.abudhabiaviation.com/flight-operations/aerial-application.aspx still does now?

Why would they have such machines?

Thanks Eric. That looks like it. It could well have been at Khor Fakkan! The black anti-glare has gone, but not surprising if it was sitting there for nearly 20 years. That’s my truck in the background!

Thanks for that. My “Pawnee” included the Brave variant. I thought the larger rear window was the clue. But I cannot find any sort of Pawnee on the UAE register.

Looks like a Brave. Pawnee didn’t have an all metal wing. The canopy frame gives it away as well.
