Coningsby 27/6

Post by slogen51 » Wed Jun 27, 2018 9:05 am

31 typhoons out on the ramp plus 363 and BC in the 29 San hangar

Two typhoons out in front of the TMF hangar

One looks like 42? - too hazy

Red section 1-9 checking in
White 1-10 checking in
Blue 1-7 checking in so far

Think the ATC callsigns are Triplex, Warlord and Cobra formations

Moving now - Aircraft have been launching singularly taxing from the ASP straight onto the runway.

Cheers

Lossie element all off south-side were:

ZK310, ZK314, ZK319, ZK320, ZK337 and ZK344.

310 was unmarked, rest carried either 1 or 2 squadron full marks.

I do have a list - it's a bit messy , I will try to do a call sign sequence later if not already done.

Departure sequence
344 cobra 41-46
337
320
319
314
310 cobra 46 early return

317 triplex 1-8
928
929
812
381 triplex 5 go around
942
914
920

357 warlord 1-8
346
316
312
427
308
304
306

950 missed callsign

916 triplex 9 spare ? Return before main flight
380 triplex 10. Ditto
352 warlord 9. Ditto

I too noticed ZJ918 on adsbexchange but unless I am going mad it didn't take off

Likewise for ZK340

Request for the two outside the TMF - one looks like ZK428?

Also ZK301 was towed over to the HAS area

Brilliant log, thanks.

I think 918 was showing as XXX 03, so could have been 929.

Certainly looks like the place to be on a day in Lincolnshire.
What a great schedule.

During the morning ZK364 no code was parked next to ZK383 but was towed before the mass launch
