I suspect that there will also be a Tucano in the attack version. i believe they were ordered by the Chilean AF, or am I wrong?

Also I do not expect too much Chilean AF helo's in the flypast, think they are flying in the earth quake area.

They ordered 12 EMB.314 Super Tucano's, the first four arrived on the 23th of december 2009. They we be used as training and interdiction aircraft, locally known as A-29. Primarily they will be used to train pilots for the digital F-16 cockpits. All 12 will have the same spec's.


The celebration flypast is cancelled.
