Default RNLAF F-16demo

Also coming to a European Air Show near you this season, the new RNLAF F-16
demo aircraft.

VOLKEL - The RNLAF F-16 Solo Display Team unveiled its new demo-aircraft
this afternoon. Its F-16 received a stunning new colour scheme in the past
few weeks at the logistics center at Woensdrecht AB. The orange F-16 also
proudly displays the Dutch Lion. The aircraft, serialled J-015, replaces the
aircraft that had been used over the last few years.

Captain Ralph Aarts, pilot of the F-16 Solo Display Team, flew the new F-16
from Woensdrecht AB to Volkel AB. There, the new aircraft, together with the
F-16 in the old scheme, was presented to the Commander Air Forces,
luitenant-general Jac Jansen and Director of Operaties (also former
commander of Volkel AB), commodore Sander Schnitger. Obviously the F-16 Solo
Display Team will be present during the Koninklijke Luchtmacht Open House,
which will this year take place on Friday 19th and Saturday 20th of June at
Airbase Volkel.
