Hi all.
Most of the IAF fleet of the Cessna 206 was sold between 1995-1997 to South Africa.Some are still registered there,Others were sold.
Researching the history of these planes,I need to know the current owners of the following aircraft:
U.206C C/N 1192 V5-LJB
U.206C C/N 1195 V5-PRO
U.206D C/N 1300 V5-AGR
U.206D C/N 1314 V5-NSG
U.206D C/N 1432 A2-THB
U.206D C/N 1443 9U-…
U.206G C/N 6845 A2-AJI
Thank you
Avi

Kev, alas I haven’t a clue to which IAF avinoam549 is referring. But he doesn’t seem to have come back to the thread to check if anyone answered his question, otherwise he could enlighten all of us awaiting the clarification in great anticipation.

I’m confused. Were they Indian Air Force?
A simple answer please to a simple question, for I am but a man of simple thought and meagre intelligence.
Ah, I see. The Indian Air Force and the Israeli Air Force operated them. I only found a link to the IDF operation of the type.
Isn’t it amazing how it all becomes clear when you stop bumbling about in the dark and the penny drops…. Did you hear it down there in South Africa?

Go to http://www.caa.co.za/ (did they steal that URL from the UK CAA?) There might be something there. The connection is too slow where I am so I can’t surf the site right now.

yup
V5 in Namibia, A2 in Bots and then ZS,ZT,ZU are South African.
don’t think our GRN got round to putting the register on line yet.
there are a couple of good pic’s of the c206s listed above if you google the registrations

Oh, so it’s not the Irish Air Force then? :dev2:
By: kev35 - 10th January 2011 at 19:26
Thought it was the Israeli Air Force or IDFAF or whatever they are called.

Just to clarify bushbutcher. V5 is Namibia, not South Africa. I might be mistaken, but A2 is Botswana. Try googling the individual tail numbers. I’m not sure whether the Namibia DCA or the Botswana DCA have their aircraft registers online.
