In a significant tribute to the valor and sacrifice of World War II veterans, the Commemorative Air Force (CAF) has announced that its historic Navy aircraft the Douglas R4D-6S, Ready 4 Duty, will undertake a remarkable 12-week transatlantic journey. This commemorative mission, aptly named the Navy to Victory Tour, will traverse 12,000 miles across the southern and eastern United States, Iceland, the United Kingdom, France, and the Netherlands, from April through July 2025.

On Friday, September 27, 2024, the Royal Netherlands Air Force (RNLAF) will mark the end of an era as it bids farewell to its fleet of F-16 Fighting Falcons. After 45 years of distinguished service, the iconic aircraft will embark on a final round flight over the Netherlands, symbolizing the conclusion of its operational tenure.
