Editorial
Welcome to the last issue of volume 39!
Last month we had 96 pages, this month we make up for that
by having 120 pages for you! Included are two articles, one
titled “Whatever happened to...the Kuwaiti Lightnings?” and
the second Nederlands Transport Museum. The first one is
pretty obvious as to its contents, giving a comprehensive
overview of all Lightnings to ever operate for the Kuwait
Air Force. The second one is giving a nice introduction and
its contents of the first ever pop-up museum in the Nether-
lands, the “Nederlands Transport Museum”. It is located in
the Dutch town of Nieuw-Vennep.
Next to those two articles the Triptease is back, but we have
to miss the Warbirds section. All other sections are present
as usual.
As we announced last month, you can now order the EMOOS
too! Sales are already going fast so be quick to order your
copy, before they are sold out. This means all of our 2018
editions can be purchased via the shop page at http://www.scram-
ble.nl/shop. Please note, dispatch time can take up to three
weeks after receiving your order. We will do our utmost to

On 16 March 2018 the fourteenth A400M (the 0073/F-RBAN) of the
French Air Force was handed over and was flown on 20 March to
Orléans-Bricy. On this day Bruno Delliere was able to go on base and
photographed the 0014/F-RBAF and 0033/F-RBAI of ET01.061. The
delivery of the latest A400M took place several months in advance of
the scheduled date and it means that the fleet is now big enough for
the air force to fly more operational missions.
