Cobija-based Stationair 6 FAB-337 visited El Trompillo.

On the first of its three visits to IAT/RIAT. Delivered in 1973. Still in service in 2022.

Team 60 did not fly long with the F10 codes of Angelholm AB.

Picture taken during the live exercise. In the background are two Mi-24, one HH-60 and another Mi-17.

A total of 52 H-19s from the US Air Force and army are present here, sandwiched all together like this. From my vantage point I could only see about a quarter, but 129022 was one of them. Even though I can't recall nor read from the full rez pic which exactly.

The Shiden or 'George' was unusually developed from a floatplane fighter, the N1K Kyofu or 'Rex'. It was a formidable dogfighting aircraft, despite technical issues that were solved in the N1K2-J Shiden Kai with low-set wing. This is assumed to be c/n 5511, Imperial Japanese Navy tail code 201-53, which was captured in the Philippines in January 1945 and given identification number S7 by TAIU-SWPA at Clark Field. It only flew once as such as the undercarriage collapsed on landing. Note that US insignia are a bit off, with old-fashioned rudder striping serving as a warning to Allied pilots.
