Delivered to the Belgian Air Force as RM9. Sold as N51964 then HR-ITA in 1978. Reregistered as N702JM in 1987 but had not been applied when this photo was taken. Reregistered as N510RP in 1988 then back to N702JM in 2004. Current on the register with an owner with Nashville, MI in 2025.

This rare example of a Percival Pembroke is one of the few remaining. It has an interesting history flying for the Belgian Air Force (RM-9) as well as Air America (N51964) and was involved in drug smuggling operations during the Vietnam Air. This aircraft also spent time in South America where it too was allegedly running drugs between Honduras and the US as HR-ITA. It became N702JM in 1987, then N510RP in 1988, when it was stored at Anoka County-Blaine Airport in Minnesota. Officially reverted to N702JM in 2005, but not painted on. It remained there until 2018/2019, when it apparently made its way up to Canada.

Operator unknown. Originally delivered to the Belgian Air Force Sep 54 as RM-9/OT-ZAI. To Air America Apr 78 as N51964. Believed to have gone on the Honduras register in 1978 too. Was in Tamiami (TMB) for a number of years and re-registered N702JM in Dec87. Re-reg N510RP in Jul 88. At some point it made its way to Minneapolis - Anoka County-Blaine / Janes Field (ANE) MN. It was apparently registered N702JM again in 2005, but the last photo I've seen of it, semi derelict at ANE in 2011, shows it still with reg N510RP.

Seen following a heavy rainstorm, this aircraft was on old 'friend' regularly seen on my travels in Belgium, ex RM-9/OT-ZAI of the Belgian Airforce, a real surprise in Florida.

Imagine finding one of these things parked in Minnesota!
