Prop spotting in Kenya

[Colin @ Freightdog Models]

Just came back from a business trip to Kenya, managed to get a couple of shots of some unfamiliar propliners;

An unmarked AN-12 departing Jomo Kenyatta early on friday morning

A Nord 262 formerly operated by the Kenya CAA for calibration tests, now used as an instructional airframe at the airport training school.

Hope you like them, it was a nice surprise to get the AN-12 on the move , according to my guide most of this type has been banned from Kenya due to dubious maintenance histories....

I love the big Russian turboprops.

Thanks for posting.
