The C-40C has been and gone to U-Tapao and was 02-0202 calling BOXER40.

A bit of info relating to the above.
Only 1 ATR was read off, 1 was parked on the mil side, 1 on terminal side & the other landed.
HS748s didn`t fly but were towed about a fair bit & readable from various angles.
DA42s & C172s flew & were read off from pictures.
Hercs seem to move & can be read off from different angles on the viewing decks with a bit of work.
A few shots from the Air Force & Police Museums can be found in the Thailand folder at https://www.flickr.com/photos/gsairpics/albums

the application of an external code to ATR72-212A L16-1/52 is news.

A visit to DMK later this week should shed more light.

The 3 surviving ATRs are easily identifiable,

L16-1/52 is in VIP colours
L16-3/52 is in standard colours
L16-4/52 is in standard colours with the 100th anniversary markings in the fin
