A total of six G222 have been operated by the Royal Thai AF since May 1995. By early 2010 however, all have been withdrawn from use already, as the plane gave the RTAF a lot of headache. Actually, the "triple two" has been nicknamed "trouble two" within the RTAF, as it had many technical issues and apparently did cost more to run than it's bigger brother, the C-130 Hercules. The airframe shown here was one of three parted out and somehow exchanged for a Saab 340B, which was received by the RTAF in May 2012. Scanned from slide.
