"This photograph showcases Forca Aerea Portuguesa's (Portuguese Air Force) CASA C-212-100 Aviocar, registration number 16503 (msn 7-17), from Esquadra 502 (Squadron 502), in the year 1990. The Portuguese Air Force proudly operated this versatile turboprop transport aircraft, manufactured by CASA, a Spanish aeronautical company. The C-212-100 Aviocar is renowned for its short takeoff and landing capabilities, making it an ideal choice for various missions, including troop and cargo transport, maritime patrol, and humanitarian aid operations. In this image, the aircraft is seen in pristine condition, adorned with the Portuguese Air Force insignia and markings. The C-212-16503, a vital asset to the Portuguese Air Force, is positioned on the tarmac, ready for its next mission. The aircraft's distinctive design, with its high-wing configuration and T-tail, exudes a sense of power and agility. The image captures the essence of the Portuguese Air Force's commitment to maintaining a robust and modern fleet, ensuring the effective execution of its diverse missions. The CASA C-212-100 Aviocar, a testament to Spanish engineering and design, has been a trusted workhorse for numerous air forces around the world, including the Portuguese Air Force, since its first flight in 1973. This photograph serves as a reminder of the rich history and tradition of aviation within the Portuguese Air Force and the critical role that transport aircraft like the C-212-100 continue to play in ensuring the safety and security of nations."
