Troopship 400M (10544) was delivered new to the Indonesian Air Force (TNI-AU) in November 1976 as T-2707. Together with 7 other Troopships, it served in 2 Transport Squadron at Jakarta-Halim. In 1980 it was re-serialled to A-2707. It experienced an accident with Troopship A-2706 (10542) in June 2012 and was withdrawn from service. In late 2017 is was transported by road to the Dirgantara Mandala Air Force museum in Yogyakarta where it is now on display, sporting its original camo livery and original serial.

On the internet we found a report of the official visit of the president of the Somalian federation to the government officials of the autonomous region of Puntland, in northeastern Somalia. The president arrived with a Fokker 50 in an executive scheme, 5Y-FAI (Daljir, Garowe, January 7, 2018). The owner of this aircraft (most likely 20282) is still not identified, but it would mean that the LEASCOR F50, of which we had a picture in the previous edition, must have another MSN; 20328 is the current candidate.
