This Turbo Porter carries fake serial 02, it's actually 006 and 06 which was damaged in 1973. The real 02 (c/n 529) was scrapped in the early 80s. This 06 is former HB-FCV and was delivered to the Israeli Air Force in June 1967. See also here, where it was also marked 4X-SVY. The Israeli PC-6s were once assigend to 100sq where they were used for special ops para training. It carries a non-standard fake propeller hub.
