A short follow-up report about the former ex-Belgian Air Force Hercules C-130H that have been sold to the Pakistan Air Force.
This week, two Functional Check Flights over Belgium were carried out with ex-Belgian Air Force C-130H's from Brussels Airport.
On Monday August 1st C-130 4479 (CH-09) flown as Pakistan Air Force PAAF479 performed a FCF over Belgium for about 2 hours, which included a couple of approaches at Koksijde Air Base and on Thursday August 4th C-130 4482 (CH-11) flown as Pakistan Air Force PAAF482 could be observed during taxi, departure and arrival at runway 25R.
The first aircraft was delivered to Pakistan a couple of days back & the remaining six are expected to follow soon.
Photographer Edwin managed to capture both of the test flights.
