ATAC Update...She Flies!!!

Post by hawgwash » Sat Aug 24, 2019 7:10 am

Not sure if this is the right place to put these but they are fairly current military aircraft.....in civilian hands.

Former Armée de l'Air F1B 502 takes took to the air for the first time as N601AX Thursday at Fort Worth Alliance airport as ATAC 91. Well done to all those involved, only 39 or so to go.

Thank sWeazel69 for catching my error, N601AX of course. Who would ever get 6-9 mixed up? I guess it depends on whose on top?
