Thanks for your help Les. Any idea what the tanks could be - long-range fuel or possibly material for spraying ???

Les, following on ... this 2nd image is of the same aircraft. I would be interested to know whether you still are of the opinion that it is a Cessna 172.

This second image is of aircraft YL-CCO, taken from the internet, which is indeed a Cessna 172, as identified from the registration number. Please compare these three images and let me know if you have a different opinion.

Going by the reg on the right wing on the first pic which as far as I can see is YL-CCO and the colour scheme I would still go with the Cessna 172.

Sorry guys, but this is Pilatus Turbo Porter YL-CCQ. The wing mounted fuel tanks come as an optional extra.
