The Royal Malaysian Air Force (Tentara Udara Diraja Malaysia - TUDM) operates two VIP S-70's since 1997. The 2nd is M46-02 (c/n in doubt) and even though staffed by RMAF personnel, both helicopters are under the direct control of - and take orders from - the Prime Minister's Office. There were plans in 2015 that both helis would be transferred back to the RMAF and join four ex Brunei DF S-70's which were about to be handed over to Malaysia, but the deal with Brunei fell through. Note the external fuel tanks.

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 By early 2010 however, all have been withdrawn from use already, as the plane gave the RTAF a lot of headache.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.

Built in 1982, this short version of the Do228 first went to Norving A/S as LN-HPE, then to Sweden as SE-KKX in June of 1989 before heading to Kenya in December 2003. In late 2008, it has been seen in all white colors at Lokichoggio (LKG), an airstrip in northern Kenya from where many airplanes fly relief goods into southern Sudan. It also appears to have been based at Jubba in early 2010, operating for South Sudan Air Connection SSAC. More recently, it as been involved in an incident at Pibor, Boma State, South Sudan on September 5, 2020, while being operated by Transafrican Air.

The Indonesian Air Force operated 40 Swiss built Bravos elementary trainers between 1982 and 2015. They were based at the TNI-AU's main flight training facility in Yogjakarta. The abbreviation LM stands for "Latih Mukla" and means elementary trainer. The Bravos, as well as the advanced T-34C's trainers, were replaced by a single type, the Grob 120TP.

After B737 cargo planes were allowed to serve Wamena airport as from 2010, the Indonesian DGCA also cleared passenger 737's to land there in early 2014. Around 2018 however, the risk of 737 pax flights was re-evaluated and deemed to be too high, and consequently stopped, even though no incident happened with a pax 737. Reason's given were the relatively short runway length combined with Wamena's altitude of 5500 ft. In turn, the ATR-72 became the standard pax airplane again serving WMX. Note the kids on the other side of the runway, well within the airport premises....

Before joining the Kulula.com fleet in January of 2010, this 2000 built airframe had flown with Turkish airline SunExpress as TC-SUA, then with Spanish operator Futura as EC-IUC and finally with US operator Ryan International Airlines as EI-DND. It briefly was registered in the Czech Republic as OK-PIK (with leasing company GECAS). It joined Comair in August of 2015 and now wears the full "British Airways" livery, which is not as funny as when it was captured here during approach into JNB.

Built in 1993, first registered to Bavaro Sunflight in the Dominican Republic as HI-642CT, then to Africair as N6236G in November of 1997 and right away sold to AirKenya in December 1997, which leased the aircraft to the Save The Children relief organisation. It was reported as ET-ANF in November 2009 but seems to be back in Kenya as 5Y-BMZ at the time of upload. Nairobi-Wilson hosts many different small operators, pretty much everything from domestic airlines to tour operators to relief agencies.

Switzerland, as one of the richest countries, has been very moderate in acquiring luxury jets to carry its ministers and officials around. For some time in the early 1990's, it operated two old Lear Jets 35 before upgrading to this 1981 built Falcon 50 in January of 1996. The jet was bought from Geneva based private firm Aeroleasing S.A. and had previously been operated as HB-IEP and N76FJ. It left the Swiss AF fleet in October 2013 and was registered N260ER with Moro Aircraft Leasing Inc.

This 1964 built C-130E was hastily delivered to Israel 2nd hand during the Yom Kippur war in October of 1973. It previously served with the USAF's Military Airlift Command as 63-7844. It was pictured here at the - now closed - air base Lod, back then part of Tel Aviv's international Ben Gurion airport. All of Israel's military transport planes, namely the C-130 and B707 fleet did relocate to Nevatim AB near Beersheba around August of 2008, just a few weeks after this picture was taken. Being an old E version, this airframe has most likely be stored by now.

Delivered new to Bearskin Airlines as C-GGVX in September of 1975, later with Air-Dale, also in Canada. Was registered in Germany as D-ISKY with different owners between April 1995 and December 2002, before joining Trigana Air that month and year. Trigana Air operated - and still does - many Twin Otters into jungle airstrips in Papua, and due to the demanding flying conditions had a fair number of incidents unfortunately.

This 1982 built UH-60 carried the US FY # 81-23588 and was phased out of it's military service in 2015, when Unical Defense Inc laid hands on it and registered it as N160AQ. It was seen at the Heli-Expo 2017 in an attractive black-white "whale" like paint. Later sold to it's current owner SDGE and operated in the FAA "restricted" category.

The TNI-AU started to operate Flankers in August of 2003 and has so far purchased sixteen aircraft of four different versions. That's far from the original ambitious plan to eventually operate 180 SU-27/30's among 10 squadrons. Currently, two SU-27SK (serialled TS-2701 & -2702), three SU-27SKM (TS-2703 through 2705), two SU-30MK (TS-3001 and TS-3002, pictured here) plus nine SU-30MK2 (TS-3003 through TS-3011) are based at Sultan Hasanuddin AB, South Sulawesi and operated by Skadron Udara 11.

In 2019, the Swiss AF evaluated a new fighter to replace it's ageing F-5's & F-18's. Lockheed-Martin had the USAF send four F-35's from Hill AFB, Utah to Payerne AFB. As part of the evaluation, each aircraft type had to land at Meiringen AFB in the Bernese Oberland. 13-5081 from the 34th Fighter Squadron "Rude Rams" had the privilege to carry out this historic landing, which might very well be the first and last F-35 ever to be seen in Meiringen. Note the swiss cows not bothering at all, as they are used to jet noise. Or did they simple not see the stealth aircraft coming?
