It appears to be a Douglas C-117 which is a C-47 with more powerful engines. Tail number 17191 flew out of Iceland
From the linked website "Standing in front of the weather office, 17191 is ready for another flight to one of the radar stations around Iceland". The aircraft has the same KEFLAVIK and tail number markings

Those airplanes are Jodel1050 Ambassadeur. The red one is D-EHKA. The picture has been taken at EDHS, a former military airfield built by the Luftwaffe in WW2.
D-EHKA is based in EDXR (northern Germany)
It has been built in 1964 in France and still flies 100-150 hours every year.
Very efficient, o200A, 5 Gal/h and 100 kts cruise. Can fly up to 6 hours.

video of the possible ...

I might be a little late to the party, but my daughter just convinced me to watch this movie a couple of days ago and, being RCAF for the last 30 yrs, I noticed the red & white CF-5 right away. It’s an old 419 “Moose Sqn” colours bird. I saw it several times when I was posted to Cold Lake, AB. Sad to see these old hulks in such disrepair.

These pods can provide infrared imagery like that seen in the clip. Both pods are used on American military aircraft. I can't speak to the gray levels because I'm not ...
