      They must have plans to induct maritime patrol aircraft, otherwise there is no point in training in those .

      • Sri Lanka Air Force had trained one of their F-7 fighter aircraft during the past two days. I got information that it was an air test that was done by a Chinese pilot. Today hopefully there will be another test flight from Katunayake, that will be to the North of VCBI, towards Kurunegala. Wonder what these tests are for?

                  • I have seen a Harbin Y-12 of SLAF fly over Ratmalana airport in the evenings and in some mornings. It seems to be circling the airport. Anyone knows why?

                      Mostly base training. I live closer to Ratmalana airport, and almost all the time Y-12s and Cessna aircraft fly about, sometimes even a Bell 412 or Mi-17.

                        Don't bigger planes than the Y-12 land?
                        When is the scheduled Helitours MA-60 plane landing?

                          IL76 of Indian Airforce once landed at RML several years ago.

                          • Why can't SLAF planes fix ADS-B transponders? Isn't it easy for them and aviation enthusiasts to track?
                            (can it be for security reasons?)

                              This explains all.

                                Bigger planes do come by, such as the Antonov AN-32B, C-130K and mostly the MA-60 aircraft. Nowadays even commercial/private jets come by too on short stopovers.
                                The Helitours MA-60 aircraft normally touches down at 1600hrs (4.30pm) or sometimes a bit late too.
