    Thanks! It's an Aero Boero 95, 26 of them were built in Cordoba, Argentina in the 60s. Later Boero built two subsequent versions, AB115 and AB180, I think they reached 400 planes or so, most of them were exported to Brasil or sold locally in Argentina. All of them have in common a very robust structure and nice flight characteristics and were used as crop dusters and glider tow airplanes...

    A few were exported to Latvia? You are in Latvia?
    It looks a bit like a cross between a SuperCub and a Maule.

    It is roomy, indeed!

    here we use LQ only for official planes and helicopters...
    our registration system is very old, we reached the point in wich all the available registration numbers are used, I don't know why we hadn't changed to a more realistic system, like FAA's for instance...


    go figure: 26 characters in the alphabet, 3 characters available for registration in Argentina for general aviation: 17576 planes


    considering that in theory we never reuse the registration numbers, It is crazy!
