We had first flying day of this year.

As far back as I remember these photos were taken way before New Year... I mean # 9243 along with another plane #.

By the way, Marti we're so close each other and we know so little about us. I'm interesting.. what types of missions are you doing on a daily basis during routine sorties and how many sorties do you fly a year?

ps. Is it true, that JAS cannot carry Aim-120 Amraam missiles on it's wingtip hardpoints? Only Lima/Mike Sidewinder up there, one hungarian Gripen pilot told me so.


BEST WISHES for the New Year to the Czech Air For$ !!

Hi eNwings!
Sorry but I can tell you the types of missions and etc.But I can tell you that the main task of our squadron is air defence of Czech Republic and air policing.And we have more than 2000Fh every year.

Yes the JAS-39 can´t carry AIM-120 on wingtips,but on wingtips can be AIM-9 P/L/M/X , Python 4, IRIS-T or A- Darter.It only depends on user which equipment ( missile ) buy.

The last week two pilots from Čáslav successfully completed independent air-to-air refuelling with a one-seat version of the JAS-39C. Each of them managed to successfully connect to the tanker C-130 Hercules several times during the independent training flights.
