Switzerland, as one of the richest countries, has been very moderate in acquiring luxury jets to carry its ministers and officials around. For some time in the early 1990's, it operated two old Lear Jets 35 before upgrading to this 1981 built Falcon 50 in January of 1996. The jet was bought from Geneva based private firm Aeroleasing S.A. and had previously been operated as HB-IEP and N76FJ. It left the Swiss AF fleet in October 2013 and was registered N260ER with Moro Aircraft Leasing Inc.

The Swiss AF ordered 26 single seat and 8 dual seat F-18C/D Hornets, which were delivered between 1996 and 1999. The first unit of each version was produced by McDonnell Douglas in the US, while the rest was assembled at the "Eidgenössisches Flugzeugwerk" (now RUAG Space) at Emmen AB. The Hornets are used - among other duties - for air policing and as such carry the radio frequency on the external center fuel tank, so that intercepted aircraft can contact the Hornet crew. On this picture taken on cold Winter day, the snow on the ground lights up the fuselage nicely.
