EDITORIAL
Another year has passed and I hope that you receive the paper magazine before the Christmas break. The January issue will feature the usual UK Review for 2018 (this year it is back in Graeme's capable hands) and the Index for the 2017 issues of MAR.
Please remember that if you have to download your 2017 PDF issues for MAR or @MAR that the files will only be on the web site until the end of January and then they will be removed. Please remember to download them to your own storage devices!
For those who have renewed their 2018 subscriptions a big thank you! Happily, you are in the majority - for those who have not renewed yet please do so as soon as possible. As, in recent years, we will not be sending out reminders and we have to decide in early January how many paper copies we need for the first January issue and if you have not renewed by then there is always the possibility that you could miss out on the first issue.
To all of our contributors (regular and occasional) and all of our readers, I would like to wish you all a Happy Christmas and an excellent aviation 2018 from all of the Editorial team, and from my wife Christine who makes certain you receive MAR every month!

ISRAEL Hatzerim AB – The Kfir TC.2 marked 301 which arrived at the Israeli Air Force Museum in February has been confirmed as being former IAI test machine 303, which never saw active IDF service. It replaced 310, which went back to IAI at Ben Gurion and onwards to Colombia. Interestingly, the wing-set plate in each gear well is marked s/n 49, 2.76, strange as the TC.2s were built between 1981 and 1984 – presumably this aircraft was fitted with replacement wings as some point, maybe even while it was being prepared for preservation. Ovda AB - (11.17) An update from November. Pole-mounted outside the gate is a Kfir. It is an ex USA loan machine and 747 is the only one unaccounted for. 010 IAI Kfir C.1 Plus 747? Two more aircraft are just inside the gate. The AH-1 is probably one of the US Army aircraft delivered for spares. 115 Bell AH-1 492 McD F-4E(S) 201 Sqn A group of five aircraft is near a monument on base. The Kfir used to be unmarked, but now wears 827. The real 827 went to the USA in 2016 as N407AX after a period with IAI at Ben Gurion. An IAI tag in the RH wheel well shows 741 (which later became 841). Also, the F-15A has either been repainted, or the aircraft swapped, as it used to be marked 312. It is almost certainly a repaint, as 301 was in a very poor condition when last seen at Hatzor in April 2013. 338 Douglas A-4N 827 IAI Kfir 144 Sqn 841 264 Lockheed F-16A 115 Sqn 632 McD F-4E-2000 201 Sqn 301 McDD F-15A Two A-4s sit elsewhere on base. Their function is unknown. 376 Douglas A-4N (886) Douglas A-4E An F-16 sits outside the fire station, which is next to the ATC tower. 754 Lockheed F-16A 116 Sqn The storage compound is in the southeast area of the base. The compound is surrounded by a wall, which makes claiming some of the aircraft a bit dubious (for example, all that can be seen of the eastern-most line of Tsukits is their V-tails). Totals in Nov17: 38 A-4, 1 F-15A, 25 F-16A, 3 F-16B, c 19 AH-1, 1 Kfir, plus many Tsukits. There are no longer any F-4s present. Most of the AH-1s do not appear to carry serials – many will be spares aircraft supplied by the USA. Identified were: AH-1 234, (67-15)662 A-4H 205, 219, 221, 225, 228, 2(3)7, 256, 265, 272, 277, 282, 292.

ITALY Borgo Faiti (LT) – (10.17) The Museo Storico Piana delle Orme has repainted its Lockheed PV-2 (37419/N7486C) into Italian marks as MM80074/87-2, representing an aircraft flown by 87o Gruppo at Catania/Fontanarossa.

ROMANIA Bucharest – Updating the October issue, MiG-21 503 at the Muzeul Aviatiei is in fact a MiG-21M. In addition, a reader has queried the report of MiG-21PF 508, as he believes it may no longer be present. Sadly, I quite often get museum reports which seem to contain a list of what the reporter thought should be there (according to “his database”) rather than what he actually recorded……
