I think she got recently overhauled engines on her. As far as I know she belongs to a Consulting Engineering Company in Pretoria. Old friend of mine, retired from the SAP Airwing a few years ago, is flying her on a freelance basis for them. He was a SAPS fixed wing and helicopter pilot.

<...it did not look too great in its old scheme ... and this one is not much of an improvement>

Black is just plain <wrong> for an aeroplane...in Africa, isn't it? (You have posted a few photos, also, of a Shrike Commander at FAGM, with lovely sand-coloured paintwork, which I find spoiled by the contrasting <grey> belly! The two main colours just do not fit together, in my opinion, Bruce -- I'm certain you know which a/c I refer to?)

Registration unknown, couldn't get a good angle. If anyone could help me out, I'd appreciate it. I believe it's ZS-LET

If it is ZS-LET ..it did not look too great in its old scheme ... and this one is not much of an improvement !

Hi Bearcat, if it is a unique scheme, then it has to be ZS-LET: https://www.jetphotos.com/photo/9354055

She is ZS-LET

I kinda like black on an aircraft - makes it stand out

I saw an all black Cessna 210 at Virginia back in December. Can’t recall the reg, but it looked pretty smart. Can’t imagine it to be very cool in that aerie in the hot summer sun

FWIW the black looks better than the green did.

No accounting for taste
