"F-GOLD" at Annecy airport
Seen at Lugano airport this weekend is a strange "mock up?" marked as F-GOLD.
I assume this represents a Turbo Commander perhaps used 20+ years ago for the Astafan Turbojet program (F-BXAS).
Is this indeed parts from the scrapped F-BXAS, or merely a mock up, and does it have a purpose there?
Thanks in advance.

Certainly a Commander airframe which has been "modified" (windows and gear), perhaps for filming? Certainly not F-BXAS I'd suggest (there was also F-BSTM).
It would appear to be the latest alias for "9HB-CPA", Aero Commander 690B msn 11506, previously I-TELM/D-IKAH.
