This is former US Army 73-23137. The C-12C was transferred to the civil market in Oct'99 as N200ET and served the hazy Dynamic Aviation Group Inc. (Oct'99 - June'03) and the even hazy Airserv International (Jun'03-Mar'07). Funny to see the Beech here with PacTec titels, a ECHO European Union sticker and covered cabin windows in Feb'06. Food for thought... anyway, in Mar'07 it started to fly with Missionary Aviation Fellowship USA. Transferred to hazy Dynamic AvLease Inc. from Jun'09 and incompany re-registered to N43A in May'10. All these hazy companies are related to US govermental agencies.

A 1988 Airbus Industries built A310. The buzz was delivered as F-WWBN in Aug'88 and only started to fly commercially with Cyprus Airways (1947) as 5B-DAX from Feb'89. The aircraft was withdrwan from use by the Cypriotic company in Apr'03, but picked up by Eagle Aviation in August 2003. It started to fly as F-GYYY. Transferred to Ariana Afghan Airlines with the same registration from Dec'05. Only some half a year later, the A310 was transferred as VP-BTM with S7 Airlines that operated the wide-body till Dec'10. It is since that month permanently withdrawn from use at Crestview (FL).

This Dominie was badly damaged on 23 April 2013 while parked at Kandahar (Afghanistan). A huge hailstorm damaged this aircraft as well as about eighty (!) US Army aircraft/helicopters. ZD704 was deemed unable to fly, and the USAF supported the British Forces in dismantling the aircraft so it could be transported back to the UK. An RAF assessment resulted in damaged beyond economical repair. The CC3 was stored at St.Athan up to Nov'14, then stored with Marshalls at Hawarden till Jan'15. It became an instructional airframe at the Defence Fire Training & Development Center at Manston from Oct'15.

Nice Maryland ANG Herc at the busy platform of Kabul

This unmarked Globe Jet Airlines Tristar was last reported permanently withdrawn from use at Sebha, Libya. It was last noted on 28 January 2016, together with two other Tristars. In April 2020 one of the three was destroyed by the ongoing civil war while the other two are in a really bad shape (see 26°58'58.10"N-14°27'33.90"E)

This Il-76TD is a former Soviet Air Force Il-76MD. It was delivered as CCCP-86919 on 27 August 1982. It was transferred to Atlant as UR-76319 on 11 September 1996 up to August 2002. Modified to TD the CANDID was sold as EX-86919 to Botir Avia and flew there up to September 2003. East West Cargo took it over as ST-EWC in November 2003. In May 2005 it became Air West Cargo with the same registration. The TD was last noted at Khartoum in January 2008 and by March 2010 it was withdrawn from use. In late September 2013 the aircraft disappeared and was probably broken up.

You can hear the lovely Huey noise... Three CH-47C Chinooks of the Aviazione dell'Esercito (Italian Army Aviation) were deployed in support of the International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) in 2005 to Kabul, Afghanistan and needed armed protection during their transport missions. To fulfill that task, three with armed AB212 (Anti-Surface Warfare) helicopters of the Marina Militare (Italian Navy) were deployed too. Weird to see those Navy Hueys deployed in a country with hardly any water.

This Mi-24P was assigned to the Afghan National Army - Air Corps (ANA-AC) Rotary wing, 377 Regiment. One of the rare day's, the attack helicopter flew.
