Re: 2023: six ex-KLu Luchtmacht RNLAF Chinook CH-47D's to be sold to Billings for firefighting...

Are these six D-66x Chinooks?
One D-66x went to the NNM at Soesterberg?

The four D-10x were sold already to USA before I thought.

So both the Tiger and the NH.90 are going, that's a firm goodbye to Airbus in Australia :-S With the NH.90 problems in Norway, Sweden and Belgium, the helicopter section of Airbus is taking a hit. Good they still have the EC.135 and 145! Hi Patrick The NH90 is not (solely) an Airbus product, But a ...

Re: 2023: H135s bought to replace Army Gazelle helicopters in Northern Ireland Ulster mothballed....

Any idea which aircraft (serials) this is about? I only know about the Juno HT.1s that are used at Shawbury. Would seem logical they are used to supplement the fleet there anyway. These 5 helicopters don’t have military serials allocated yet. They’re registered as G-CMIR, G-CMIS, G-CMIT, G-CMIU, G,...

Re: Air Defender 2023

The first USAF C-17A will come to Jagel shortly for landing/take off/taxying trials and to show the loading/offloading possibilities. https://ww...

Re: Jan 2023 US govt: Turkey can get 40 new F16s if it does not block Sweden/Finland NATO entrance...

Odd article get the message but it is mentioning sale of F-35s and F-16s.
Biden is quoted for something he will say in June 2023...
And 20 billion dollar for 40 F-16 and 79 updates. That's al lot of money.
Canada will pay some 15 billion for 88 F-35s.
