It would be interesting to know how many Gooses are still flying.

INDEED, I’d like to know, also…

according to wikipedia ;

A total of 345 were built, with about 30 known to still be airworthy today (although approximately 60 are still on various civil registries, many of them are known to have crashed or been otherwise destroyed), most being in private ownership, some of them operating in modified forms

I’ve searched, Gerard, to find the name of the bird on the Gyuana’s A/F logo ; it’s most probably a HOATZIN = the national bird of Gyuana.

it’s an excellent idea, GERARD….!

let’s continue with….. ‘SAO TOME & PRINCIPE” ;

till now I remain convinced this roundel was never used ;
………………………………………………………………… [ATTACH=CONFIG]226495[/ATTACH]

&, nearly 10 years ago somebody else wrote (fm flagspot.net ) ;

Unknown Air Force symbols

According to [cos98], reports (without an image) that only recently small number of aircraft was obtained and «there are reports of those being marked with a roundel version of the national flag: red, yellow and green with two black stars». I quite familliar with [cos98]’s phrase «there are reports» so I will consider those “reports” with utmost caution. What I have learned from the Russian Aviation site is that the «small number of aircrafts» is extacly one An-32. My guess that it fly with civil markings and maybe national flag as fin flash, but until someone will be there and take a photo of it, we will still be in the dark.
