Erik,

The serial of the Fantrainer FT-400 F18-08/35 is not correct ! The same aircraft with code 08 (and with checked c/n 028), was noted some days earlier somewhere else. It is possible that the aircraft you noted is a FT-600 model with serial F18k-08/30, can you confirm you read 08/35 or just read 08 ? Also possible is F18-05/32. The Thai "5" is very similar with the Thai "8". I asked in this hangar if it was possible to have a look at the Fantrainer, but unfortunately it was not allowed ! I missed CT/4E RR.19 in this hangar.

In the PC9 hangar a 7th PC9 in Blue Phoenix colors was noted (this aircraft was parked in the middle, nose on). This is the 11

In the last hangar there were some more CT/4's: RR.1, RR.7, RR.20, RR.24 +1

Interesting to see, the Chipmunk is also marked RR.2315 now.

I can not help you with the Grippen.

Fantrainer F18k-5/30 is now preserved here, with code 2315 (yes, same code as the T-33). This is along a sports field near the flightline.

I was not allowed to take pictures in the hangar - but for sure I made a note of the Thai abracadabra:



This comes straight from my notebook so what do you make from it??? It did not carry any code western-style...

On close look it should be F.18-06 / 35 right??

Thanks for the update! I saw that 7th PC-9 in the hangar but since it was head-on I could not read it of. That other CT/4 hangar was closed and not possible to read through the windows...

I posted my Fantrainer log above...

Yes 100% sure F18-06/35 !! Thank you, well done.

Do you have a picture of this one ?? I think Thai serial is not correct ! Probably F18k-8/30 ?

Not only T-33 have code 2315 also the Chipmunk !

[patrick dirksen]

Hi Hans,

The picture is not 100% sharp (taken from a bus), but it could indeed well be an 8 instead of a 5. So if you saw 5 somewehere else this trip, I take it that this preserved one is F18k-8/30.

[patrick dirksen]

I can now confirm the preserved Fantrainer is F18k-9/30! Help from Hans and a better picture made it 100% sure.
