Req W&R

Post by SWAT 11 »

Hello all,

Seen today was a bare metal C130 near Abelag. Does someone knows the registration?

Beside the fuselage and remains of CH10 was a white/red aircraft. Some one for the ID?

Maybe this one as seen in September 2018:

Arriving at 2040L as RCH985 was WC-130H 65-0985 ex Puerto Rico ANG / AMARG. The aircraft is on maintenance inside the Sabena Technics hangar. It is rumoured to be going to the Niger AF.

The red-white aircraft is the former OO-DJF. It's cut in three pieces and placed on a containerfloor so it's easy to transport.

The WC-130H 65-0985 ex Puerto Rico ANG could be (re)delivered soon to Niger.

In a story today from Niamey (in French):

"Les Etats-Unis vont par ailleurs fournir au Niger un avion de transport militaire Hercules C-130 en février 2020. Ils ont déjà fourni plus de 14 millions de dollars en formations de pilotes, d'équipages, de mécaniciens et en pièces détachées".
