Did you get the information about next week's possible arrival from the Ministry of Defense or is this your own guess?

Fantastic material! Especially the FAS Baslers are great.

Question: do I understand it right that the Argentinian F-16s won't be delivered until end of 2025 (apart from the first non-flyer that has already been delivered)? And do they aready fly in full Argentinian c/s, as I heard a rumour say? If so, it would be interesting to spend a day or so here comi...

Probably fake news, the picture shows a FAB crash in 2021.

After some 20 pilots were converted to the F-16 for the Ukrainian AF the training will terminate in December 2024 and transferred to Monte Real/Portugal. All Danish resources will needed to operate the F-35A and bring it to full operational capability. There are strong indications that the Norwegia...

This seems to imply that the RNLAF will also acquire AAR pods for the C-390's. Literally it says that the Embraer C-390M can be made technically suitable to support this HAAR capacity. It does not say the Embraers were purchased including this function, so it leaves room for speculation Patrick. Bu...

Quit big aircraft for (only) elementary training.

PC-7MKX most likely candidate

That makes more sense, both Super Tuc and PC-21 are overkill for the Dutch needs. So it's probably Grob who files the lawsuit.

On it's way now ETA 1425

That's a question I have asked Daan already many times. You have to mention your source Daan, especially when it's about a sensitive topic like the possible supply of F-16's to the Ukraine.

10x G-550 AEW and Sigint
6x new tankers

Really! What's the source about the six tankers? Impressive list of new equipment

Has been widely spread over the internet last July, I remember The Aviationist published a large article.

What is potentially going to be offloaded can potentially go to Odiham, and is of great interest!

Ik heb navraag gedaan op Texel en dit kreeg ik als antwoord: De TR-KOR was hier eind mei aangekomen uit de UK. Dit was een militaire Gabonese regi en dat bleek niet handig. Lang niet alle landen gaven toestemming om zo'n heli door hun luchtruim te laten vliegen. Uiteindelijk is de heli omgezet naar...

Did you check the Notam? Today and tomorrow UAS.

Both currently @ EDDB. Flying to EBFN in one go is pretty much the limit without ERFS. (Not EFES Gijs!)
