Look closer, three blade prop? Look at the canopy. I swear that's a Turbo Tormentor.

EMB-314 Super Tucano, AKA the A-29, effectively replaced the A-37 in many Latin American air forces.

Incorrect VID. Wrong prop and cowling for the A-29. It isn’t the Grob 120TP either, as that also has a five-blade prop.

@ChuckMK23 might be correct, but I didn’t think Ecuador operated the T-34C any longer. Maybe they’re posing in front of a display airplane somewhere.

Chuck is right, I was wrong. It is a T-34C, and they retired them about 7 years ago from what I can find on the internets.

Dropped in on the Pacific Coast Aviation Museum at KSTS while I'm in Sonoma staying with family for the holidays. Nice Navy centric collection of jets and Helos. Many in dire need of basic corrosion work, wash and paint.

F-14 and Legacy Hornet side by side...


This former Fallon SH-60F SAR bird could use some love ...



Fun afternoon.
