Franco-Belgian Advanced Jet Training School closed

Formal closure of the Franco-Belgian Advanced Jet Training School (AJeTS) at Base Aérienne 120 Cazaux in France took place in October. The joint unit, flying Alpha Jets, had trained Belgian and French pilots since 2004. The 25 Belgian Alpha Jets which have gone through a mid-life update, including new headup display and GPS navigation, will continue at Cazaux, but are now being put up for sale, along with engines, other equipment and a simulator.
