daz greenwood Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 It looks like a land plane version of the Lakes Sea Bee. But I could be wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Osher Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 Oh blast, there was an article on that aircraft in one of the aircraft magazines in Jan or Feb. It's from Jordan, or is ex-Jordanian AF, or something like that. They're being phased out though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paul_c Posted March 17, 2008 Author Share Posted March 17, 2008 (edited) good work Roland! thats a much better pic than mine. if i remember correctly, they used to come back with bullet holes in them quite regularly. the Iraqi guys used to come into our hangar to borrow airframe repair kit.....

JosephLalor Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 (edited) Well done from me too, Roland. I found the Seeker while looking for a completely different aircraft, the SAMA CH2000. Joseph Edited March 17, 2008 by JosephLalor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
