Re: Paris 14-07-2017 with Thunderbirds!

The Defence. gov dossier, also informs of BA 705 at Tour to close, from the beginning of 2018 and the transfer of operations to BA709 at Cognac, for combat crew training. :)

In 2018 BA125 will start to receive the first of 12 A330 MRTT Phoenix, replacing the Boeing C-135's. :(
