It carries a large badge of the 81 Air Maritime Group. Did the unit change?

Yesterday afternoon hangar door was open. It is still in the hangar on the left side if you’re standing in front of it.

According to a very recent article at https://www.africaintelligence.com/cent ... 405932-ar1 the Nigerian ATR is ready for departure

"Rheinland Air Service (RAS) has completed maintenance work on one of the Nigerian Air Force's two ATR 42-500 MP surveillance aircraft. The aircraft has been prevented from leaving Germany by the Covid-19 epidemic, just as the NAF needs to intensify maritime surveillance operations and the fight againt Boko Haram."

The hangar door was partially open and therefor visible today in the left hangar (the lower one of the two) on the left hand side.

As it occurs NAF961 (Fa900) just headed via NOR northbound descending, might well be it ended up here (after nomore contact).
