To my delight Orange-Caritat is no longer mentioned in that list (they even get more personel in the close future!).

Nothing to add about the F1CR, their move to Mt-de-Marsan has been announced for 2009 or 2010.

About the military transport fleet, all C-160 and C-130 should be deployed to Evreux, while Orléans will only operate A-400M.
