    Interesting- never knew they used this one!

    The information about Tunisian HH-3 was published some years ago at worldairforces.com:
    http://worldairforces.com/Countries/tunisia/tun.html

    See the link above. And maybe, these links will be interesting:

    Also I have found some weblog with some information about Italian HH-3F, which is in use with Tunisian Air Force:

    Also note the excellent images and close-ups of Tunisian SF-260 plane there.

    Here are a couple more… There aren’t many models of the Super 18 (the old Aurora is the only one I know of, and it’s rare and expensive), but conversion of a standard Beech 18 doesn’t look too hard. That’s what I plan to do, and there are several kits of the standard Beech 18 one on the market.

    And, of course, the Tongans have some different civil aircrafts too.
    But I have found some strange information (see the link below):

    http://3rdlevelnz.blogspot.com/2011/01/a3-land-10-days-in-tonga.html

    Note the image of Beech D18 N500MK there, and read the title below the image of N500MK (click the photo to enlarge). Maybe, this information is mistake ?

    …the top caption reads “Spitfire XIV, once used as a trainer by the Indian Air force. Restored in 1992 and now airworthy’. The lower caption reads ‘Seafire XV at the air museum at Mingaladon, Myanmar, 1995.’ No credits on either picture…
    Edit: The title of the book reads “Spitfire: The Allies’ Greatest Fighter”

    Yes, AdlerTag has written right translations of image captions. But the title of book exactly reads: “Spitfire: The Allies’ Best Fighter”.

    и сейчас летает – Who is flying?

    No. “И сейчас летает” is equal to “now airworthy”.

    No any hangar ! This hangar is a myth and fable.

    Do You have any pics of the Galebs? I have a YuMo kit and I like to build a plane from Montenegro. Alex

    Dear Alex !

    It is better for You to ask Montenegro thread starter – this Forum member, nicknamed Coldwater. You can ask him right in his thread (see the link above).

    Good luck in search !

    First time in history ! The A-320 plane in our town

    First time in our local history, the first А-320 aircraft has arrived to our town from Moscow on May 27th, 2011.
    This is very long-awaited event, because of very deep crisis any airlines did not fly to our town. Last time the regular flights were carried out more than 5 years ago. After that only casual charter flights occasionally arrived – and very seldom. To fly somewhere by airplane, our local people had to go to the nearest big cities by ground transport, and only therefrom they could fly.

    Today the “Avianova” company has come on our airline market. They fly by A-320 aircrafts. The first А-320 in our town has registration EI-EEI. Here is it’s photo in another airport:

    Below are vidcaps from our local TV news – EI-EEI in our airport:

    This company has offered the low prices for tickets, and now these tickets are accessible to the big part of our local people.

    Unfortunately, today Beriev company have very few – or almost no! – any export sales.
    Only one example of Beriev Be-200ChS amphibian was supplied in April, 2008 to Ministry of Emergency of Azerbaijan.
    Newest small amphibians – like Beriev Be-103 – are certificated according to Airworthiness Norm and Rules of Russia, USA, Brazil, China, Europe; these planes are repeatedly shown at International Aviation exhibitions; they fly in different countries for the advertising purposes… But…:(

    We could also mention Mikoyan-Gurevich

    Dear friends !

    MiG – it is not “Mikoyan-Gurevich” !

    MiG – it is “Mikoyan-iGurevich” (“Mikoyan and Gurevich” in English. Or You can write – Mikoyan & Gurevich :D).
