Hi Guys,
Some Pilatus PC-21's from the Pilotenschule will visit Valley for training in this period
Go and get them!

Interestingly the RSAF are receiving the PC21 along with the hawk Mk165 and their pilots are going thro training at Valley (plus coningsby on typhoons) at the moment
I wonder if its connected with this or a RAF/training provider evaluation for future ops with this type from Valley (as already rumoured?)

I Suppose they may be flights of two as same callsign but different aircraft.
Also I read in an earlier post from tombsrip about the RAF evaluating PC21, This is not
so as the Accent group have chosen T-6 TEXAN II, They will also get Grob120TP and Embraer Phenoms
that is why they were parked together at RIAT15.

There should be 7 in total. 3 flights of 2 and a singleton bringing up the rear.

At midday on Monday 4 Swiss could be seen outside the hangar :
A-103,104,105 and 106
Plus I could read A-107 in the hangar that is on the west side of the field visible from the beach carpark .
