Photo Comment

Norway was an early participant in NATO's pilot training programmes in North America leaving only ab-initio training and pilot selection in Norway. Initially this was performed by Cornells and Harvards, but from 1956 the Safir was used. 341 was taken on charge 18 April 1957, initially as 57-341 U-AV (U being the aircraft type code and AV the individual aircraft code), then 341. It was sold to LFK Flyhobbyklubb at Kjeller 11 March 1983 as LN-LFK and later joined Nedre Romerike Flyklubb in whose service it is seen here. Current in 2025.
