Description: this Cessna (build by Reims) of Publi-Air based at Grimbergen airfield was registered to them on May 8 1969 and moved in 1970 on to Northeast Aviation, a small company based at Beverlo airfield. Here depicted when with the second operator with small "NEA" titles in the tail and furthermore in the color scheme of Publi-Air advertising for a Belgian holiday resort at Tenerife called "Ten Bel". In less bright circumstances, on February 3 1974, it tragically crashed shortly after take-off at Beverlo airfield when performing an acro at (too) low altitude, killing all three occupants. A crash report (in Dutch) can be found here and it was officially cancelled from the register on December 16 1976.
