Albanian Air Force
I’ve searched, & found some ‘good’ video’s of former Albanian jets, but all ones in b/w 😡
this is the ONLY “in flight” COLOR pic I could find of an Albanese jet !! but of a really poor quality :[ATTACH=CONFIG]219646[/ATTACH]
the marking on the tail is doubtful !!
in fact I’d like to see (in colors !) (& IN FLIGHT) their former roundel, (on a JET )……………………………….[ATTACH=CONFIG]219647[/ATTACH]
Can you help ??
friendly, Etienne
to you all, & for Geoff

Citation:
“The LC-47H (Buno 50777) was lost on November 25, 1962, while making a jet assisted take off (JATO) at Davis Glacier. A JATO cannister was released accidentally before it stopped firing and hit a propeller. The LC-47H lost an engine and crashed.”

26/10/2006 – Superb bust of wartime pilot Mike Donnet unveiled at the Royal Army Museum
A very convincing looking bust of wartime pilot Michel “Mike” Donnet based on a wartime picture of this pilot has been unveiled at the Aeronautical Section of the Royal Army Museum at Brussels. The stature is positioned in the cockpit of Supermarine Spitfire LF.IX MJ783 (ex-BAF SM-15) which is on public display and is surprisingly realistic.
