A
SQUADRON of fighters and three transport aircraft have flown
to the Middle East as part of the Air Forces commitment
to Operation Bastille.
The
14 F/A-18 Hornets and three C-130 Hercules have been sent
as the forward deployment of Air Force elements to prepare
for a potential campaign against Iraq.
Two C-130H and one C-130J Hercules aircraft, along with aircrew
and support personnel, were farewelled from RAAF Base Richmond
last Friday.
