• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

To stick with red, white and blue. Photo was taken in 2011, but the aircraft (only one example was built) already flew in 1981.
 
Hi Naki :salute:, Hi Ferry :salute:
Correct about the Beechcraft (Bonanza/Debonair) connection, although it is also reported as original design (!?)
The aircraft has the colours of the flag of the country of origin (I donot mean the USA).
The country where it was built is not generally known for its aircraft industry.
The ........ was reportedly aimed at the country`s air force as trainer.
