Fokker 60s sold ???

[Stratofreighter]

The three question marks point out that this is certainly not confirmed yet

According to rumours two Fokker 60s of all four now stored at Woensdrecht were sold to Peru somewhere this month
Can anyone confirm

[Stratofreighter]

Okay, I have heard from various sources that if all goes well at least two Fokker 60s will have left Woensdrecht Air Base before the end of 2010, destination as yet unknown...
If anyone has more updates, feel free to share them...

It concerns the two MARPAT F60s. Contract signed on 23 February, first delivery should take place in June.

Surprised to see my A.net picture in this link. Nice to hear that 2 Fokker 60's will be in the air again. Let's hope the other 2 will also find a new home soon..

Hail to the newspapers! The Dutch MoD confirmed the sale already by the end of February....

If all goes well the two remaining Fokker 60 transports will also have left Woensdrecht for new owners by the end of this year...

June 2010 is what the project-officer announced a few weeks ago.

Are you talking about the Maritime Patrol Aircraft U-01 and U-03 or the two "remaining" UTA transports
I was referring to transports U-02 and U-04, the "non-modified ones"...

Well since they are trying to sell them, I should hope so!!
But the last I heard there were only customers lined up for the two F60MPAs (Peru) and the two F50s.
