That's an exUS F100 in full full Platinum Jet c/s which has long been stored at NWI.
Did it actually arrive and what's it doing here?

It definitely arrived (otherwise I'd would have had to arrange alternative transport home for our crew).
As to the reason for its arrival, it needs a good maintenance check before going back into airline service. :wink: I can't say much more than that at the moment.

Well we can always guess, don't you think :D
Several airlines have stated they want to expand or start flying F100
Skywest Australia wants to add 3 F100 before March 2008
United Airways from Bangladesh wants to start flying F100 somewhere during Summer 2007
IRS Nigeria wants to add 2 F100 to its fleet
FlyPink is a new airline for "shopping girls" that has said it will fly a Fokker 100 starting soon.
Most likely however in my opinion is Yeongman Air (South Korea):
http://www.koreatimes.co.kr/www/news/na ... ryCode=119
The carrier, which was launched last December, plans to obtain a license for irregular operations soon, receive an air operator's certificate by the end of this year, and launch its first flight around February 2008.
Yeongnam Air plans to adopt two to three Fokker-100 airplanes from the Dutch company Fokker in the latter half of this year, and more planes next year.
The carrier has sent Fokker-100 maintenance experts to the Netherlands for the contract. It has also signed contracts with Fokker-100 maintenance agencies in Europe and Asia to ensure machine parts supply.

LN-RNG F.50 a/w old S.A.S.tail

REQ
seen in a hangar left to the hangar with the A.319 (seen from front) was what looked like a F.100 fuselage (without vertical tail and wings). Anyone got any ideas??

Five PC7's active over the field at one time. Four of them: L-04,06,07&08. Also active doing several t/g's and low appr. was a NATO E3A. Later on there were two (Portugese?) F16 crossers and a Slingsby PH-KAI from the BEMVO (bijzonder elementaire vlieg opleiding) based at EHSE.

The fuselage was in the (I think) second hangar next to the big one with the tent in front (and the 319 inside)....

I didn't see where the Norwegian F16 came from....But it could have come out of the same hangar, as this was closed while we were walking the fence, and open when we were standing on the other side of the runway....It suddenly appeared, being towed to the small green hangars/shelters and was pushed in such a hangar/shelter within 3 minutes....

In the second (left) hangar when you are in front with the runway between you and the hangars are the rebuilding the OE-LFO, Fokker 70, ex Austrian Arrows (damaged 30-01-2004).

The OE-LFO is still in hangar 3 (next to the F16's). The Fokker 70 in hangar 4 (next to the Airbus) is the same that performed a test flight.
For your info: The CRJ departed last saturday at about 18:30.
