PAF in the market for F-27 spares

From the Philippine News Agency (May 27): PAF in the market for F-27 spares

In line with its efforts to ensure that all of its aircraft are mission-ready at all times, the Philippine Air Force (PAF) has allocated the sum of Php4,650,000 for the acquisition of spare parts needed for the repair and maintenance of one of its three Fokker F-27 "Friendship" transport planes.

Pre-bid conference is scheduled for June 2, 2 p.m. at the PAF Procurement Center Conference Room, Villamor Air Base, Pasay City.

On the other hand, bid submission and opening is on June 14, 9 a.m. at the same venue, said PAF Bids and Awards Committee chair Brig. Gen. Nicolas C. Parilla.

The F-27 is a turboprop airliner designed and built by the defunct Dutch aircraft manufacturer Fokker.

Design of the aircraft started in the 1950s as a replacement to the successful Douglas DC-3 airliner.
