    No.
    The G-40 was cargo PARACHUTE itself, not the aircraft.

    Unusual Russian marking

    See the marking of this Russian Yak-18T:
    http://i788.photobucket.com/albums/yy169/19711011/Yak-18T.jpg

    It is unofficial insignia, and it is stylised like WW1 Russian insignia.
    This Yak belongs to FLA RF (the Federation of Light Aviation of Russian Federation) – note those Russian letters on fuselage.

    I was aware the Israelis had only evaluated them and i was hoping to try and find out if they ever wore Israeli markings or not.

    I seem, I saw black-white profile of DHC-1 with Israeli markings in one of old issues of “Scale Aircraft Modelling” magazine.

    A Colombian Pucara. I did not know that they used this aircraft.

    Yes, they had 3 of “Pucara” aircrafts.

    Some images from Colombian and other aviation forums:

    All three Colombian Pucaras have been transferred in 2008 to Fuerza Aerea Uruguaya because of financial problems (see picture below – note the parts of Colombian “Pucaras” /with “FAC” letters/ together with Uruguayan “Pucara”. Also note three fuselages on left hand on picture. The photo by Álvaro Mejía, vía Javier Ordoñez [from aviacol.net]):
