Just finished its very last flight for the Koninklijke Luchtmacht (KLu, Royal Netherlands Air Force), J-512 was part of the farewell formation flight over the Netherlands. The Falcon is here seen just before it gets its traditional fire department water salute. J-512 was built by Fokker (L-272) as a Block 15AC OCU and delivered to the KLu on 9 November 1989. It was modified in the late 90s to Block 20 Mid-Life Update. It served most of the Dutch F-16 squadrons in its career, but is soon after this fini flight heading for Romania as a training aircraft or to Ukraine.
