Gents,

Hi,

Dunno, I forgot to ask. It's legit as it comes from the driver who I know, did a low level scenic tour of the Welsh valleys that a few would have witnessed last year. It's been on his programme for a while and is routing from Germany. I know he's dead keen to visit the BBMF.

Well the Reds are back from Greece next week....

[baz1]

that's food for thought I did think maybe support for the Reds but wasn't sure were it was routing from, mind you having said that support for the Reds outbound was from Waddington but Coningsby as been used in the past.

Gents,

C-17 pushed back to 13:30. From Ramstein as 'Reach 539'. Accurate as of a few hours ago.

RCH539 07-7181 ETD Ramstein for Coningsby 1130Z

[Agent K]

Well the Reds are back from Greece next week....

Not sure why a Charleston (ie. South Carolina ie. USAF C17 would be supporting the reds - in fact I'm sure it wouldn't be...)

[Vulcanone]

Not the first time they have had USAF support

[Vulcanone]

And unless I'm mistaken its descending for CBY right now

Gents,

I'll ask when I get the chance, as he's said he'll update me if the ETD changes tomorrow. Currently down for 15:00 local. My suspicion is that the visit to Coningsby has got little to do with operational tasking!

Hopefully I'll make the run up myself tomorrow.
