UH-1H
H-14 pres SADJ fake serial? jun17

Most likely this is former instructional airframe 67-17648

painted up as H-14 that went to the army in 2005. However,

that original airframe, 67-17325, has not been reported or

tied up to an army serial since; so there is still a chance that

the preserved aircraft is the real deal after all.

The three unfinished aircraft took up serials of crash victims.

We think that construction number 106 was delivered to

Uruguay as spares source and never became A-606.

E-822 FAdeA c/n not 1027 1026

Construction numbers for the Pampa have been quoted as one

digit higher and as above but starting with a ‘2’. Many sight-

ings in the past took place in the factory and listed the fuse-

lage numbers; those may be different from the construction

numbers that were eventually allocated upon completion.

The first is a construction number update too. We suspect

the surviving V-02 to be a second hand attrition replace-

ment rather than the original V-02 that crashed in 1969. In

any case, it has been stored for over two decades. It could of

Sitting in the PNA hangar at San Fernando since 31 May 2008 is C212-300 PA-71 awaiting maintenance. Recently it was decided that the repairs

will be too expensive to be worthwile on such an old airframe. (San Fernando, 19 March 2014, Wim Sonneveld)
