Royal Air Force Voyager ‘VIP’ aircraft declares emergency
Citat:The Royal Air Force’s VIP Voyager, a tanker also fitted to carry senior officials, recently encountered an issue over the North Sea.
This Voyager KC3, primarily used to transport the British royal family, the Prime Minister, and government ministers, but at the time engaged with aerial refuelling, declared an issue at approximately 15:50 by issuing ‘squawk 7700’—an international code signalling a general emergency.
Vespina, registered as ZZ336, is a customised version of the RAF’s standard multi-role tanker transport (MRTT) aircraft and is equipped with advanced secure satellite communications, missile detection systems, and specialised seating configurations to accommodate its high-profile passengers.
It is part of the RAF’s Voyager fleet operated by No. 10 Squadron, based at RAF Brize Norton in Oxfordshire. While on VIP missions, Vespina is staffed by a dedicated crew of thirteen, including two flight deck officers and eleven cabin crew members.
