As you may have read, Italy is getting rid of part of its F-16, which are returning to Davis Monthan and will definitely be scrapped.
All the aircrafts from the 5th Squadron at Cervia will be sent to Trapani's 37th Squadron or taken back to the US, so only half of the aircrafts (16-17) will remain in service until 2012.
I decided to make updated flightplans to depict the only remaining aircrafts, but the following two liveries are not available:

Has anybody painted them?
Moreover, I remember somebody (Ray?) repainted this aircraft: any chance to get it?

Thanks for answering Miljan!
Yes, the F-16 are being ferried back to the States, there are photos on Airliners.net showing them on a fuel stop at Lajes. Ther have been at least two flights between July and August, and the Vipers have been accompanied by a C-130.
EF2000? I think we don't have the money to get new ones (I read the Government refused to buy 25 fighters), I think they are going to wait until the F-35B is ready (in my opinion, lots of years). But the remaining F-16s will be in service for two more years. I hope I'll be able to see one some day!

I read for that cut of budget, but I thought that there are enough purchased EF-2000s to replace F-16s.

Flightplans ready, get them in the "My Flightplans" thread!
