Matapos ang ilang taon, muling nakapag-escort sa airspace ang Philippine Air Force gamit ang bagong fighter jets na binili kamakailan.

Sa pagbalik ng bansa ng Pangulong Benigno Aquino III kanina galing sa state visit sa US, nagsilbing escort nito sa himpapawid ang dalawang FA-50 fighter jets ng PAF.

Huli itong ginawa ng Air Force noong taong 2005.

Ayon kay Communications Sec. Sonny Coloma, nagsimula ang pag-escort ng fighter jets sa eroplano ni PNoy at kaniyang delegasyon mula sa air space ng Polilio Islands.

Habang sakay naman ng PR 001 ang pangulo, masaya nitong pinanood ang fighter jets na ang-escort sa kaniyang flight.
