Buochs blue Pilatus Maintenance hall.
Seen all inmates August 20th between 15.15-16LT because almost all doors were open.
From left to right:
Blue civil PC-6 HB-FKC
behind this a new Omani PC-9 with 649 (or 640) on paper over serial (c/n 649 should be serial 432 and flew the week before) and a 2nd Omani right from it.
In front of these Slovenian PC-6 (L6-)02
right of this one a gold civil PC-12 c/n 2313
And silver civil PC-12 with big "PC-12" text in tail.
In the right part 2 AME PC-21s E27-25/792-25/10311 with E27-(23?)/792-xx/10325?. And I thought a 3rd one was in the most right corner hidden.
Outside were PC-12s:
HB-FOG (Armasuisse)
544/D-FHRD
OH-PBL and a civil one in silver mks no reg seen.
Flying PC-12s:
HB-FWU, HB-FQD
Behind this hall was an Omani PC-9M with arabic serial 427 (maybe old fuselage?) std against the fence.
Any help on the missing (mil) serials is very welcome

Many thanks fro your log. About the Spanish PC-21s, the second one sighted could not be the E.27-23 because this one was delivered on Jun22. In a logical thought, this must be the E.27-26/10312.
Hope you will be able to read them better again.
Small detail about the location: it's called Buochs Airport or Flugplatz Buochs, the name has never been Stans-Buochs. Sometimes it's referred to as Buochs-Ennetbürgen, but that also hasn't been an official title as far as I know.
Hi, I changed airport to Buochs only.
Thanks all.
Is Omani 427 new fuselage already redelivered to Oman earlier?
On the 2nd PC-21 I can now read on the picture I took almost from front #103x5 in tail. When I am back in NL I can check better on computer.
The Mirage 3S is preserved in front off this hangar.
At Lodrino I saw 3 Sea Kings now outside std bagged Aug 20th.

Thursday 29th August two of us read that second one to be E.27-XX / 792-XX / 10325
I finally could check the pics I took August 20th on computer.
What I extra can read:
2nd AME PC-21 is E27-39/10325/792-3×
2 Omani inside: c/n 649 on paper (it flew the week before and after), other 427 in arabic (so the new one). The old 427 was behind this hall.
Oman PC9/M:
427 c/n 644 full c/s
(432) c/n 649 primer info from paper. Also on Paper AC#4 (4th conversion ??)
The old center section of aircraft c/n 644 is lying next to the hangar

I don't think this is correct. 649 has been flying since august till Nov 8th. This aircraft was in full c/s already in August, so this will not revert back to primer. Was the paper on a rack?
