This Observer has been sold on auction a while ago, together with PS-A97 and PS-B01. The latter two have already been delivered to the new owner, PS-A99 is the las...

Hi all,

PS-B14 P. 68 Observer 2 2° Reparto Volo (hangared)

Plus unknown one (1) AB212 and one (1) more P.68 both hangared. Anyone?

Regards,
Joris
