Photo Comment

Delivered new to the Polish AF in 1973, and registered SP-LWB to LOT Cargo in January 1989 in full LOT colours - see my 1990 photo here. Reverted to 1603 with the Polish AF in February 1996 and during overhaul in 1998 repainted again in mid-green/dark green/khaki camouflage as seen here. Wfu in 1998 and transferred to Czestochowa as a fire service ground training aid. Moved by 2020 to the Muzeum Sil Powietrznych at Deblin
