The NTM-2011 website never mentioned 3 Mig-29's but only 2 from the first participants list until now.

I heard on the news that Rasmussen (NATO's boss) requested more NATO aircraft to participate in Libia.
That could be a possible reason for cancellations...

Polish Viper (or Vipers) will get Tiger stickers on tail (tails). New painting was not considered due to special paint layer on our F-16s but stickers can also be nice.

Sad news of these cancelleations :( . Operational commitments Libya for the dutch, norwegian and begian units I understand. ... But the UK Puma's? I thought no helicopters are active for Libya?

For all other countries I hope these units will show up. As for I know these countries have limited or no involvement.

Grtz,

Probably a Praethuys comment, but RAF Puma's cancel almost every year, so I was not surprised to see them cancelled this year as well. I think we shouldn't look to what is cancelled, but to what is comming:

Austria / AusAF 1JTS 3x Saab 105OE
Czech Republic / CzAF 211 Sqn 4 x JAS-39C Gripen
Czech Republic / CzAF 221 Sqn 2x Mi-24
Germany / GAF JaboG 321 3 x Tornado ECR
Germany / GAF AG 51 4 x Tornado IDS
Greece / HAF 335 Sqn 4 F-16 Blk 52
France / FAF EC 05/330 3 Rafale B/C / 4 Mirage 2000RDY
France / FAF EC 01/012 3 Mirage 2000B/C
France / FN 11Flottile 3 x SEM
Italy / ItAF 21° Gruppo 2 x AB212
Poland / PoAF 6 ELT 5 x F-16 Blk 52
Portugal / PAF 301 Sqn F-16 MLU
Spain / SpAF 142 Escuadron 4 x Mirage F-1
Spain / SpAF ALA 15 3 x EF/A-18
Switserland / SwAF 11 Sqn 5x F-18C/D
United Kingdom / Royal Navy 814 Sqn 2 x Merlin HM. 1
