    Stefan Scheuteri comments (8 April 2020): Hello. My name is Stefan Scheuteri. In 1990 I painted the picture on the side of this plane. Why? In 1991 the DH-100 aircraft of the Swiss Air Force were replaced by BAe Hawk aircraft. In 1990 the last pilot school was conducted on the DH-100 aircraft. I was a mechanic on the DH-100 for over 10 years. It was a lot of fun. Because there you could still be a real mechanic without much electronics.

    May 1990
