Hello dear pilots and controllers,

I am coming with a very curious question, or lets say task I am from Czech republic (small country somewhere in the Europe) and I am very interested in production of type LET L-610. Why am I talking about it here? One of late prototypes of this airplane had been made with tail number OK-CZD and had been renamed from L-610 to Ayres 7000 and then it flew to USA, Albany airport. After it, the production of L-610s was cancelled. All 610s (5 pieces) all here in museums in Czech republic, except the OK-CZD one (Ayres 7000) which is probably still (maybe forever) in Albany.

 

Could someone from Albany who visits the airport for spotting, please, tell me if the Ayres 7000 (http://www.abpic.co.uk/photo/1002512/) is there or not? I am very interested in it, but I have no way how to learn it, it is to expensive for me to fly to USA only because of that.

 

Thank you in advance,

Pavel Brodsky

From I could find, the plane was still in Albany, Georgia at KABY as of 2009.

There are 28 Albany's in the US, you should change the subject line to include, "Albany, GA" or "Albany, Georgia" to get the right people's attention.

 

Good luck!

I live just outside of Albany here in Georgia. Give me a few days till I go back into town and I'll gladly look around for you. Best I understand from your post, your looking for this particular airframe, correct? I'll take some pics as well if I find her.
