Royal Isselmere-Nieland Air Force (RINAF)

Organisation
The RINAF is organised first into squadrons of specific aircraft, wings of (generally) similar aircraft, groups often formed from wings with similar taskings, air divisions comprising of two or more groups, air forces of (generally) two or more air divisions, and air fleets of two or more air forces.
