    General News
 
Peruvian F50 operator ATSA is reportedly planning to resume domestic scheduled services in 2020 under a public-private partnership.

 TUS Airways suspended all operations on 230320, following government travel restrictions due to COVID-19. The company plans to resume flights once the travel restrictions in Cyprus are lifted. It remains to be seen if the current situation will affect the plans to relaunch as ELA Airways.

 Braathens Regional Airlines, better known as BRA, ceased all operations on 060420. At that time three F50s were in service on lease from Amapola Flyg. The airline is working on a plan to restart and time will show if the leased Fokkers will be retained in the fleet.

This Pakistan International Airlines F27-200 is now 55 years old. After eight years in Italy, it was sold to Pakistan and remained in service until 2000. AP-AXB (10288) is preserved in the Liaquat Family park in Quetta, Pakistan since and still looks in reasonable condition. (Faisal Faves on Google; Quetta, August 2019)


It is not too often that we can show you a picture of a new F50. Well, here is one, but not really new. Anyway it is the first picture of Amapola Flyg F50 SE-MFZ (20159), still without colors. (Anders “Bromma” Nilsson; Stockholm-Arlanda, May 18, 2020)
 
10197 600   PT-LAG Tavaj Linhas Aéreas. This Friendship was noted 240420 in a corner of Curitiba airport, in very poor condition. It is visible on Google Maps -25.530039, -49.181429
10578 400M   FAB-90 Bolivian Air Force. Seen in service 0420 in Cordoba, Argentina. The last active Bolivian Troopship is apparently re-activated for military operations.

After Bek Air took over UP-F1018 (11317) from Air Panama, it flew for some months in the previous operator’s colors, without any titles. In October it was seen repainted in the new livery, but the airline has not enjoyed it for long, due to the grounding imposed by the Kazakh CAA. Therefore this is a rare picture.

 Further to the two ex-TUS Airways Fokkers shown in the previous edition http://www.airnieuws.nl/fokker/029/index.html , the transfer to the Guernsey register apparently stumbled into paperwork issues. Both the F100 (2-BDDE, 11427) and the F70 (2-BDDA, 11536) were noted with a provisional label that should temporarily restore their 5B-registrations, but these registrations do not look completely normal. (Hendrik Cazemier; Groningen, May 6, 2020)




 In 2019 Alliance Airlines bought four F100s from Helvetic and transferred them to Brisbane. Two of these were recently ferried to Alice Springs for continued storage. Still in the livery of its previous operator, VH-VKN (11459) is seen shortly before the ferry flight. (Tourismman at Flickr; Brisbane, April 7, 2020)

 
11330 100   EP-LCR Kish Air. Seen 010520 at Mashhad in the new livery.
11359 100 OE-IMX VH-UQP Alliance Aviation Slovakia s.r.o. Registered 200420, thus not restored to its previous Austrian registration as we had supposed. The aircraft is stored since November 2017 in Bratislava in basic Austrian colors. 
11427 100 2-BDDE 5B-DDE TUS Airways. Although the new registration was applied to the aircraft 210420, it is not in the May update of the official Guernsey register. Remains to be confirmed. 
11536 070 2-BDDA 5B-DDA TUS Airways. The new registration was applied to the aircraft 210420, but is not officially in the Guernsey register. To be confirmed. 
11560 070   VH-NUY Alliance Airlines. Made a testflight at Bratislava 120520. Likely a problem was found that prevented its planned ferry flight to Australia.
11563 070 OE-ILQ P2-ANZ Alliance Aviation Slovakia s.r.o., registered in Austria 150420. Alliance bought two F70 from Air Niugini, assumedly for spare parts. The P2-registration was probably never on the aircraft, which is stored at Singapore-Seletar since 290517.
11567 070 OE-ILR P2-ANA Alliance Aviation Slovakia s.r.o., registered in Austria 150420. Never operated for Air Niugini since its arrival in Singapore-Seletar since 081017.
