Description: this second hand Partenavia Victor came on January 15 1980 in the Belgian register for Frabeco nv based at Antwerp airport but arrived there much earlier, namely on July 11 1979 as "PH-RVT" of Holland Automatic International. Here seen at its home base in a livery of the previous Dutch operator and without titles. On August 19 1985 it left the Belgian register moving a day later to the British one as "G-BMCB" for Air Kilroe. With this carrier it had a fatal accident five years later on October 20 at East Midlands airport killing the sole occupant (pilot) on a nocturnal ferry flight with failing instruments.
