Re: Exercise Iniochos 2024

Has anybody managed to read any of the stored F-4s located on the disused runway. I'm sure that there are few more parked up now compared to last year.

Re: Exercise Iniochos 2024

I think 37 might be a mispole. Ive been making a list since last week when people were in the canyon and 37 has not been reported anywhere. I think the correct French serials are 7,13,17,20,27,33 and 34. Regards Mark How many French Rafales are there? I count 8 different serials from pictures and lo...

Re: B1b RAF Fairford

It was actually the B-1s tanker that broke as I know somebody who should have flown in it. The B-1 then had to divert which was handy for those who needed it. I know of two people who needed 095 as their last B-1 so myself and Andy are both very happy that it did divert in 😎 (I read it off just befo...

The main runway at Middle Wallop is a grass runway... This is good to know. It will be good to see Middle Wallop a little more active.

Re: USAF EA-37B Updates

5518 (N518GA) was cancelled to Italy in December 2015! Nothing to do with con no 5618/N518GA which is current on the US register and will become a 'military' variant of some sort!

Re: USAF EA-37B Updates

I've no idea either lol! It's definitely an EA-37B though. Same paint scheme and DM in the tail along with the serial. Not a mispole either because I must have read it off at least 4 times!

Re: USAF EA-37B Updates

Just to confuse things, I saw a painted EA-37B at Waco in December wearing the serial 19-587/DM in the tail and 1587 on the nose (so 19-1587?)! It doesn’t fit in with any of the known construction numbers allocated to the type!
