Operated by 3 Maritime Squadron from SLAF base China Bay. The unit is expected two new additions soon, one surplus Royal Australian Air Force Beech 350i and a brand-new Beechcraft -Textron 360ER. This Beech 200 will become a trainer from that moment. During a fine 4Aviation tour, the sole Beech of the SLAF is seen here returning to its parking spot.

The 1TFW is using the K-8 as its advanced jet trainer. The SLAF is currently operating with eight such aircraft, four others were written off through the years. Due to low budgets, none of the SLAF-8s were operational at the moment this picture was taken. This SJT-740 is former serial SJT-1801. During a fine 4Aviation tour, this K-8 was seen with two others on the platform of its homebase China Bay.

Operated by the 1TFW at SLAF base China Bay, this Ce150 is gaining speed during its take-off roll. The SLAF is using both the Chinese built PT-6 and the US built Cessna 150 for its basic training. During a fine 4Aviation tour, we were able to picture the Ce150.

Operated by 3 Maritime Squadron from SLAF base China Bay. The unit is expected two new additions soon, one surplus Royal Australian Air Force Beech 350i and a brand-new Beechcraft -Textron 360ER. This Beech 200 will become a trainer from that moment. During a fine 4Aviation tour, the sole Beech of the SLAF made a demonstration flight for us.
