Photo Comment

The MIACO facility on the old Safi side of Malta's airport handled a large number of ex-military Caribous over the years, this example still carrying Tanzanian AF markings and having been delivered by DHC as JW9003 in 9.66. Although scrapped in 11.86, the remains of the airframe were used in a PT-6 turboprop mock-up and the fuselage was still extant in the early 90s
