Belgian callsigns

Post by Stephan Lodewijks »

The recent Belgian defense restructuring has had some consequences for radio callsigns:
The A.109's callsigns "AYB 6xx", "7xx" and "8xx" were replaced by "BAF 3xx"-callsigns since last month.
The navy's Alouette 3's "NYB 4xx" seems to have been replaced by "BAF 7xx". Credit: Otto in Woensdrecht forum
(The "BAF 7xx"-callsign has been the callsign for Koksijde's Sea Kings for many years as well ofcourse)

Yes, specifically 10 Wg F-16's. This does not seem to replace the 4xx-callsigns, because that range is also still in use with 10 Wg.
