The latest airforce warbird (as of 2006 June) in Bangalore is a new HT-2 which was installed on a pole at the Air Force Officers Mess at Trinity road , which is quite close to shopping district at MG Road.

The aircraft was first reported by Wg Cdr Joseph Thomas (Retd), who also provided us the photos of the aircraft on this page.

The aircraft does not sport an identifyable tail number, but carries a false number of 'T-64'. The T prefix gives rise to the belief the aircraft was an instructional airframe - perhaps at Jalhalli? We dont know for sure.

Air Cmde Tapas Sen (Retd) takes the time to check out the Trinity Mess - T-64 in the background.
