RE: Two seater trainer on the ground.

in #planes6 years ago

Nice photos. In researching to see what plane this is, it looks to be an Italian Aermacchi MB-326. It set a world altitude record of 56,807 ft. in 1966. More than 800 of the aircraft were produced, and used by over 10 countries. Primary role was as a lead-in to train pilots for very high performance aircraft.

Also interesting; the "Med+Air" logo on the front fuselage looks like a wonderful non-profit. Their mission statement says they "...help people who are suffering in remote and devastated communities around the world...to help recover with dignity and develop skills to build a better future." Cool stuff!
