Two Views of the Dassault Ouragan IC-567
from Sainik School, Lucknow. The aircraft has its Canopy in the open position and it looks
like that the plexiglass canopy has shattered long time back. The aircraft retains its
wingtip fuel tanks. |
There is a Sainik School in Sarojini Nagar
in Lucknow city. Located on the Lucknow-Kanpur Road, the School is home to a Dassault
Ouragan on thier premises. Donated by the IAF the Ouragan is maintained as a motivational
monument for young students to inspire them to join the IAF.

One of the rarest warbirds to turn up was
the appearance of a Tupolev-124 Rajhans in the Lucknow Zoo. India had acquired
three Tu-124s for its VIP requirements. One of the aircraft was lost in a crash at Jorhat
and One is with the IAF Museum in Palam. The last remaining aircraft is now displayed in
what is also known as the Banarasi Bagh here. The aircraft looks dusty in the
photograph that appeared on Yahoo, and also has a stair case to the front door - Probably
allowing the visitors to walk through it.
