  • The Dakota is kept operational for historical reasons.
  • Only few Do-28s are airworthy, the type will be replaced by the C-27.
  • The P-3B Orions are hardly airworthy and will be replaced by the R-99 or ATR-72.
  • The T-2 Buckeyes will be replaced in the near future.
  • The Super Puma's on order will be replacing the Air Force's AB205 and AB212.
