Are Jest and Rummy regular callsigns for Pacific deployments or so? Never saw them before contrary to the familiar Retro, Clan, Zesty, Cube, Tabor, Trend, Mazda etc. callsigns used for Atlantic (only?) ferries. And they have arrived by the way: https://tora82.exblog.jp/iv/detail/?s=241704261&i=20230...

It was also a tool to attract new staff, but not so anymore Why is that? AFAIK there is still a huge shortage of personnel.

4K-AZ101 is stationed at Leipzig at the moment but flew to Mali this morning. The one at Eindhoven was supposed to arrive from Leipzig. The other four Silkway aircraft appear to be at Baku at the moment.

Da zal wel dubbel voelen dan, aan de ene kant is het idd een enorme kostenpost plus dat zoals je zegt het probleem van een vervangende kist speelt, aan de andere kant zorgt het team een enorme PR boost, zowel in binnen- als buitenland.
