Swiss PC-7 Team - 22/07

Post by Callum1998 » Fri Jul 22, 2016 7:30 am

Hi all,

Just a quick heads up that the 10 PC-7's of the Swiss PC-7 Team are parked up at Edi this morning for tomorrow's show at east fortune. They're parked on the old GAT. Serials would be appreciated

Would anyone be able to provide the IDs of the PC-7s which performed the display at East Fortune? Unfortunately I never made it down yesterday but saw them on approach to Edinburgh Airport. Also saw the Navy Blackcats Wildcats approaching Edinburgh Airport and wondered if anyone had the IDs for them as well.

As posted on ScotAvNet the Blackcats were ZZ375 and ZZ535.
Also on ScotAvNet PC7s were C912/913/915/916/924/925/926/929/939. C936 was spare at Edinburgh.

Great guys and gals thank you all so much. Will write all these serials up in my spotters logbook. Of course I unfortunately never made it to Edinburgh Airport either so the spare PC-7 is the one I won't be noting.

I thought the Swiss PC-7 Team performed an excellent display and being turboprops, much easier to video than the Red Arrows.

Here is my attempt if anyone is interested:
