Evening Graeme/Afternoon Martin
Was just about to jump in with TB-30 but Martin was there ahead of me.

How's the new paint job Graeme?

Sorry Graeme, distracted by work!

Must be the Aermacchi M-290TP
(previously the Valmet L-90TP Redigo)

Hi Ken. I can't seem to find a picture of the Bernard 12.. but no, not a Bernard or French; it was from a neighboring country.
