The German MiG-29s were retired around 2004….
Mods,
Can we please add the date to the thread title, before everyone starts thinking another one has gone down.
Andy Marden
PS Note to thread originators: PLEASE put the date in the title when reporting accidents!
And another question, is the Provost still there?
The report above from 1988 is the latest I have seen.

Mike,
Do you have the tail numbers of these A-4s please?
Thanks,

Might be misunderstanding, but it’s also simple – and a little embarrassing – ignorance.
So you are saying that every Air Traffic Controller in the world should know the details of the Yak-130……..
Yes, CA302 is also at the museum. It is inside a dark hangar, which is why I didn’t photograph it.
Andy Marden
Gliderspit,
Where is the Tutor based please?
Andy
Jagan,
Sorry, but that is not correct.
CA310 went to the recruit training centre at Diyatawala, but later returned to the museum, as can be seen in my photo above.
The only aircraft at Diyatawala now is Dove CS406, photo below.

They were USMC machines on their way from Lajes to Farnborough.
Some of them will be appearing at the Fairford and Farnborough shows.

Sorry, should have added that it’s appreciated Andy posting the Balliol shot!
Looking at your book title Andy, have you covered or seen the Pembrokes on your travels that ended up in the African countries, ie Zimbabwe, Sudan, or Malawi?
The only one I know of in Africa is AF-201, which sits derelict by the main apron at Livingstone Airport, Zambia (l/n Oct10).
The fuselage of AF-202 also used to be at the airport, but was scrapped.

Last time I was in Sri Lanka (2003) I tried to get to see the Museum at Ratmalana, but it was closed. However, driving through Colombo I saw an aeroplane in a public park, apparently used as a climbing frame. To my shame I cannot find that I recorded it, so I presume there was no serial visible. And what is worse I cannot even remember what type it was. Can anyone refresh my memory?
Laurence,
I presume you are referring to Jet Provost T.51 CJ712, which is displayed in a large children’s play area in Viharah-Devi (formerly Victoria) Park.

Here is a photo of one of the two Balliols, taken in March this year. The other one is hangared.
Anyone know what happened to them? I rememember there being some sort of legal issue with the modified V1710s but have heard nothing since.
Yes I did look on their website, but the bit I wanted to read is in German.
Oxcart,
Put the website page address into Google Translate. You will get an acceptable version of the text.

No, that one arrived in Norway over a week ago.
