Maintenance continues, also while on detachment. Sometimes technicians have to be very creative to keep aircraft in the air, as not all spare parts are on stock as at home. This Puma was deployed from France to Chad as part of ALAT Det Tchad in support of the European Union Force Chad/CAR, abbreviated as EUFOR Tchad/RCA.

The PAC750 continues to be a weird looking aircraft type. Here is one seen on Abache, in the far eastern part of Chad, close to Sudan. The aircraft supported UNHAS operations in the - at that time - massive refugee region.

The PAC750 is a weird looking aircraft type. The New Zealand built aircraft made its first flight in 2001 and up to date (2019) it is still in production. Some 200 have been built so far. The P-750 has a relatively high power-to-weight ratio, so its an ideal airframe for paradrops, but also for humanitarian operations in hot environments. This aircraft has small "NatureLink" titles below the tail.

As specified by the Geneva Conventions, aircraft of the ICRC are marked with the Red Cross insignia on a white background. This marking is displayed on the rear fuselage sides and often also on the fuselage belly, wing centre section or outer wing. In addition, the aircraft are normally painted white overall, although this is not compulsory under the conventions. The operator titles ICRC are displayed on the forward fuselage, often with the circular COMITE INTERNATIONAL GENEVE marking. Alternatively, the latter is displayed on the tail fin.

This Grand Caravan was in use with the MSF, an international, independent medical humanitarian organisation that provides medical assistance to people affected by conflict, epidemics, disasters, or exclusion from healthcare. ZS-SLR once flew with DHL and was possibly leased to MSF to support the European Union Force Chad/CAR mission.

A Russian Mi-8MTV-1 in support of the United Nations. Strikingly, this UTair owned helicopter was severely damaged in July 2006 as ZS-RUC while fighting a fire in the forests near Spitskop (South Africa) when it lost power while uplifting water. The pilot released the bambi bucket but his helo lost altitude, hit the water, turned onto the side and started sinking with all three crew escaping unhurt. The wreck was recovered and the helicopter was cancelled from register on 19 March 2008. It was rebuilt and again taken on charge with UTair for UN-service.
