LET 410 Turbolet
The following LET 410 Turbolets are believed to have been on delivery to Libya. Finished in tan & green camouflage, a major difference from the support aircraft were the large “Blister” type windows, normally associated with survey and/or photographic work.
A red and white 410, OK-AZB, c/n 00-02, accompanied each group of aircraft. It was eventually sold to Blue Bird Aviation as 5Y-HHF.
