Like them fella,nice one.

[Nighthawke]

Nice catch and that is a SLAF fin flash and the serial ties in with SMR-843 already in their service.

[TheSnoopySnoop]

Thanks very much both.
Maybe SMR-843 is the ex-Australian King Air A32-673?

[Nighthawke]

No - SMR-843 is a Be200 c/n BB-1314. A32-673 is/was a Be350 c/n FL-673 but I cannot yet find a new ID for it.

Great captures of a lovely looking rare bird.
