"No sacrifice is too great in the service of freedom." “As long as we are not willing to provide an adequate, suitable and capable defense for this country, we will be oppressed, demeaned and dishonored. We will be the stepping mat of every country in this region,”(Senate President Juan Ponce Enrile) “Just because we are a very weak country militarily, we should not be taken advantage of by more powerful countries" (Senate committee on national defense and security chairman Panfilo Lacson) | |

all we can do is hazard a guess or offer our suggestion but we really don't now what the PAF will ultimately get. |

If a cargo ramp is not required. The PAF can also look at ATR 42. Cebu Pacific operates it's bigger brother the ATR 72. Super reliable, very inexpensive to operate, and maintenance could actually be outsourced to Cebu Pacifics MRO. http://www.atraircraft.com/public/atr/html...cts.php?aid=508 If used primarily as freighters, then converted airplanes would cost even less and the PAF could buy it's bigger brother the ATR 72. http://www.deagel.com/Turboprop-Airliners/...a000090001.aspx http://www.atraircraft.com/public/atr/html...d=519&pid=30414 Just another candidate for AFP needs. |

The Fokker 60UTA-N, also known as the Fokker F.27-0603 was developed out of the Fokker F.27 Mk 050 short before Fokker collapsed due to the financial problems. The Fokker 60 is a military version of the Fokker 50, with lengthened fuselage, a large cargo door in the right forward fuselage and APU. The Fokker 60 flew first on 2 November 1995. Only 4 were built and put in service with the RNethAF. In 2005 two Fokker 60UTA-Ns, including the U-3, have been converted to Fokker 60MPA. The Fokker 60MPAs are detached at Hato, replacing the P-3Cs of the Navy. Aviationweb déjà vu When the Royal Netherlands Air Force decided to buy two extra C-130's the Fokker F60's were phased out. The last flight of a 'normal' Fokker 60 was made in November 2006. Currently they are stored at Woensdrecht airbase and are up for sale. Touchdown Aviation As late as December 2008 all four Fokker 60s were still being talked about as available for sale on another messageboard ('sensya po, mods). Natignan na ba ito ng PAF? Lalo na ngayon post-Ondoy at iisa lang ang ating C-130. ![]() EDIT: Additional info.
