Maybe I'm confused but seems Blue Air Training in the US bought ex RAAF PC-9s and can do what the PC-21s can't do for live air training? blueairtraining.com/pc9/ |

I would have thought contractors 'delivering' aerial ordnance was a bit of a no no?. Pretty common now overseas. Draken are doing it with our old Skyhawks (practice bombs only). Even our old Blunties are doing it in the US, including straffing runs with the 7.62 guns. |

PC-21s currently landing at Whenuapai. Assume they’re on their way home?

The only thing I have seen of them on Facebook too was flight radar tracks.

They must be the new "stealth" variants of the PC-21.

Quite a few shots of the RAAF PC-21s on the Manawatu Aviation Enthusiasts and Plane Spotters FB page including visits by a RAAF Herc and Spartan.
