Re: Libya - UN No Fly Zone Operations - views & opinions
The area, sems to welcome more and more fighters... Makes me wonder if some will withdraw. Or if they ( coalition forces ) plan to stay there for a long period.
With the UK saying they have not enough Typhoon pilots, to replace the ones currently deployed. ( see mil. news article credits Stratofreighter ) .
I would say, keep a small force in the area, to patrol the no fly zone. And move the rest out of there.
With the UK Typhoon solo display , being the first to be cancelled for the airshow season, who will follow....

to go into my own first question...Glidepath wrote:Guys, What does the UN resolution say? (anyone?)
...........
...................
The resolution's text is subject to ongoing discussions at the highest levels. Some nations are seemingly trying to bend to rules, some nations do not agree what others do and plan, and thus there are growing doubts, all that is weekening the support to the unified 'peacekeepers' actions over Lybia.
The resolution's text is to be found at http://daccess-dds-ny.un.org/doc/UNDOC/ ... penElement, (only 8 pages).
for those with open eyes, a keen interest and maybe even an open mind... happy reading and understanding.

Re: Libya - UN No Fly Zone Operations - views & opinions
Questions: - Why were the Canadians so fast to get involved in this?
- Weren't they already in the air or waiting at the runway at the time the UN decided to attack Libya ? Decision 17-3. Landing at Prestwick 18-3. Flying time???
Curious about this?
