A word of warning, Lossie is VERY VERY quiet, only launched 3 jets today, there's only 14 Sqn flying, no sign of the Germans, although the crews were seen driving on the ringroad.

[onemac]

I'll be around tomorrow, in various locations, hoping to photograph something interesting (like an aircraft in the air for example).

I'm thinking my expectations are a bit on the high side though......

Both US P3s departed Saturday. One of the French ATL left on Friday night as FMN5624.

[cliom]

i believe one went back the states early morning and one to Sigonella, anyone know which one went early morning or lunch time?

thanks.

[nickowen]

The remaining ATL2 has been conducting ASW / ASuW Ops over the Minches all afternoon as "9QF", working with "0RW"
I haven't had sight of 0RW, but if both USN P-3s have gone home, this must have been the Canadian Aurora. Can anyone confirm if the Canadians have been flying today?

The Canadian CP-140 Arrived back at around 23:00 last night.

[np1991]

The CP140 departed as "4PQ" around 1640L yesterday afternoon

[Macc]

French Navy ATL2 '3DX' just landed at RAF Kinloss.

[Macc]

Sounds like the CP-140 has a problem, so they're holding to burn some gas before going into Kinloss.
He says he's recovering in 20 minutes.

[Macc]

Ended up recovering after 3 o'clock post-conducting several tests. The callsign was 6DZ and should be CAF CP-140 140103.

A French Navy Atlantique departed at 21:30 tonight as FNY5628. However when I checked the base at 21:45 there was an Atlantique on the deck. It looks like they've had a swap over today and No.6 has returned home (As FNY5628) after completing all of its allotted missions and a second one has taken its place arriving at some point today.

I've been at Aberdeen for most of the day today so I don't really have a clue what's been going on, but ill confirm tomorrow morning what the serial of the Atlantique currently on the deck is

[Macc]

In 2009, they used an Atlantique as a support ship, so possibly that?

Chris.

[SamP]

Just been woken up by French Navy 5112 departing at 01:30, he said his destination was LFTW with 25 POB. Looks like Chris is correct and the one earlier, or maybe this one, was support for the other.

I don't suppose anyone else got the serial of the one that arrived earlier?

Edit: It looks like French Atlantique No.6 (From 23F, Lorient) was the one that departed as FNY5628 last night and theother Atlantique, FNY5112, that departed to LFTW (Garons) in the small hours of this morning was the support aircarft, as it came from 21F at Garons (Hence its destination)

[SamP]

No.3 FTS King Air ZK456 'P' arrived this morning as Rafair 7085

Edit: Departed at 12:50 under the same callsign
