A couple of years ago, HIET's website mentioned that they had aircraft like a DH-82 Tigermoth, Stinson Sentinel and Harvard. While the Harvard was pictured sometime back, only recently (Mar 2004) did the first photograph of the Sentinel surface. The Sentinel is thus the first 'Warbird Discovery' of this year.

Recently acquired, still sporting traces of its past ownership with the Steel Authority of India Limited [SAIL] is the Beech Queen Air VT-DOQ. Not exactly a warbird in technical sense, this civilian instructional airframe forms a pair along with a Beech Twin Bonanza at the Hindustan Institute of Engineering Technology in Chennai.
