Belgian Air Force news

[Duke]

And I found out that it is currently flying in the Caribbean: it just took off from Willemstad (Curacao) to go to ...?

What is the Belgian Air Force doing over there?

Too bad nobody could give an answer to this question, except that it flew to Bermuda.
Maybe a charter, but with a BAF flight numer?
Secret holiday plans of a Belgian politician? of a senior member of the Royal family?
Aren't we Belgian taxpayers allowed to have info about this?
