PAF Classics - FT-6's & FT-7A's in special scheme

[airomerix]

Found some interesting paint schemes of now retired FT-7A's, FT-6's and FT-5's in PAF's service.

My favourite is the "Demo Bird" scheme adorned by the Warhawks and Sharp Shooters F-7P. Sadly enough it crashed a mere two weeks after being painted in the new scheme.

What was the fate of the pilot?

I don't quite know that, sorry.

That is actually the No.1 "Rahbars" Squadron Insignia.

The FT.5 infact had a very good flight safety record,I think it was either called scooter or raksha.

Nice picture, if you notice in first pic, PAF applied the "Ghost" scheme they use in F-16s to the FT-6

Nothing to be sorry about. It does resemble a Lota.

This paint scheme came out just before its phasing-out in 2002.

Are A-5s in storage??

Only a few.

Some are being displayed here and there like AHQ, Fizaya colonies etc.

Rest are being mothballed and being dismantled.

Why did Musharraf buy Fantans again??
