The last operator of 5Y-BTD (10154), a former Royal Netherlands Air Force
Troopship, was Imaatong South Sudan Airlines. The aircraft was left to the
elements in 2007 and did not attract any bids at the August auction of Nairobi
airport (see Fokkernews #24). Currently it is still in the boneyard, awaiting to
be eventually removed. (André Alders, Nairobi-Wilson, October 31, 2019)
Without doubt the only location where one can nowadays spot two active civil
Friendships is Nairobi. Two Safari Express Cargo aircraft are resting for their
next flights: 5Y-SEP (10295) and 5Y-SEC (10550), accompanied by Rudufu Air F50
5Y-WFA (20121). (André Alders, Nairobi-Jomo Kenyatta, October 29, 2019)
The Wilson junk corner houses former fly540.com Friendship 5X-FFN (10531), a
500RCF model, which looks a little better than sistership 5X-FFD (see photo in
Fokkernews #21) that remained unsold at the Nairobi scrap auction. The nose
wheel gear is missing and the paint is thoroughly weathered, but the rest looks
reasonable, although it will probably never fly again. (André Alders,
Nairobi-Jomo Kenyatta, October 28, 2019)
Skyward Express frequently leases their aircraft to other airlines. In this
instance to Safe Air Company that operates 5Y-SED (20108) out of Nairobi to
South Sudan. (André Alders, Juba, October 29, 2019)
Satys in Lelystad sprayed the second Amapola aircraft in the new livery. SE-LIO
(20146) now sports the F50 silhouette as well as the Amapola.nu web address. The
airplane is named ‘Big Mike’ in memory of an Amapola team member who passed
away. (Hans Hoffmann, Lelystad, March 7, 2020)
One of the few Kenyan Fokkers carrying titles is this Jetways Airlines 5Y-JWZ
(20208), albeit on an otherwise white aircraft.
(André Alders, Nairobi-Wilson, October 28, 2019)
Silverstone Air Services F50 5Y-IZO experienced a serious accident when it
veered off the runway on take-off October 11th, 2019 (see Fokkernews #23). Two
weeks later the wreck was seen dumped near the runway, devoid of titles and
registration. It could easily be identified by the underwing registration.
(André Alders, Nairobi-Wilson, October 28, 2019)
A
hitherto unidentified F50 is 5Y-CHK that was photographed while undergoing
maintenance in the Silverstone Air hangar.
(André Alders; Nairobi-Wilson, October 31, 2019)
This nice aerial picture of the Nairobi cargo ramp shows no less than six
Fokkers: starting left, anti-clockwise: 5Y-WFC (20250), 5Y-SEP (10295), 5Y-WFA
(20121), 5Y-SEC (10550), 5Y-IZZ (20180) and 5Y-SMN (20168) (André Alders,
Nairobi-Jomo Kenyatta, October 29, 2019)

Flyequator.com is an airline in South Sudan, of which very little information is
available. This shot demonstrates that the company leased the single F70 ZS-SKA
(11559) from Branson Air and provided it with their own titles. (André Alders,
Juba, October 29, 2019)
In
the previous edition we could inform you of the surprising activation of
Alliance Airlines VH-NUZ (11568). Now we can provide photographic evidence that
it is flying in the airline’s standard colors. (Wolfgang Kaise, Brisbane, March
3, 2020)
