Scramble Messageboard

On 18th December 2014 the Dutch Minister of Defence sent an update to Dutch parliament regarding the proposed acquisition of (the first) four A330 MRTTs for the European transport and tanker fleet. Along the lines of the SAC C-17 project, a new unit will be formed, most likely at Eindhoven AB in The...

Polticians in New Zealand played down any future C-17 buy since they have a budget for no more than ONE C-17 replacing 5 fifty-year old C-130s. The C-130's have been upgraded between 2005-now so I think they are not in a hurry to commit anyway.

Nee, deze A320 heeft nog de oude (Wizz) registratie en is dus nog niet door BAW geaccepteerd. Heeft op 19 december gevlogen en is nog op Woensdrecht aanwezig.

Heeft vanmorgen een testvlucht gemaakt en is om 11:30 vertrokken. Vliegt nu boven Edinburgh als FAC0002. Adios FAC!

Today there will be a command change at Woensdrecht AB (new base commander).
A flight of 4 PC-7s will make a fly-past.

This event will take place towards the end of the afternoon.

Unfortunately I do not have more information on other participants (if any).

Anyone for the ETA of the other Saudi?

UR-KRE (ex OO-VET) is still in H47
N221FR same
MKH is back outside minus 'Sostar' titles

(DHL A300 scrapped by AELS 2 months ago)

PH-MKH has been moved to in Hall 7 for some paintwork (?) / touching up.
One lonely F50 remains outside.

We still need a gateguard here, not much to choose from locally though.
