3rd C-295 plane ordered by PAF arrives at Clark Air Base
By: Frances Mangosing - Reporter / @FMangosingINQINQUIRER.net / 07:31 PM December 11, 2015

The third and last brand new C-295 transport plane ordered by the Philippine Air Force (PAF) arrived at the Clark Air Base from Spain on Friday.

Three Airbus C-295 planes worth P5.29 billion were ordered by the Philippine Air Force in a bid to boost humanitarian assistance and disaster response. The first two arrived early this year.

The C-295 planes are the first batch of brand new military transport aircraft in three decades. The last new military transport planes that the Philippines had were F-27 Fokker aircraft in the 1980s.

The third plane with tail number 142 touched down at Clark at 5:51 p.m., said Air Force spokesperson Col. Enrico Canaya. It left Seville, Spain, last Dec. 4 and made stopovers in several countries.
