Unknown P-8A 29th June 23

Can anyone shine a light on identity of USN P-8A which travelled north up the West coast on 29th June at approx 1230 with Hex code AE680C. I don't think it touched land in the UK
Thanks

Re: Fri 9th June

Can I assume earlier visitor was not a B-52 61-0039 but of course a KC-135R 61-0309.

Daks at Prestwick

A plea to all involved with Prestwick !
With the Dak invasion later this week can we expect a full report on any arrivals even though some might be civil. Let's hope all goes to plan and the weather is kind to us enthusiasts and photographers

C-130A 60476

An appeal to our senior aeronumerologists out there I am trying to find any records of sightings of C-130A 60476 either in Scotland, or over Scotland or even in England during the period 1962 - 1969. If no one has seen it then I might have to give in and assume I logged it by mistake. Thanks SGS

Re: Mildenhall April 1971

That run down of TDY C-130s would be of great interest. Can anyone confirm if this is in any of the BARGs that have been issued on CDs or could we find a date for this and I will try to find back numbers.

Re: Mildenhall April 1971

Would be interesting if anyone has a list of the C-130's on that rotation as my long term aim is to establish dates and locations for a few remaining 130's that I have logged but without dates. Its not an exercise of finding new serials but completing my logs. Thanks to all who have assisted upto no...

Mildenhall April 1971

We travelled south to catch the 4 B-52s at Marham and then continued onto Mildenhall later that day the 10th of April 1971.
I have a log of the 135s at the Hall that day but no record of any C-130s.

Could it have been a no-130 day or is there another gap in my log book.

C-130 SIGHTINGS (2)

Thanks for the reply to my previous request !

It would have helped if I had asked for help with UK Sixties sightings for the correct serial

It should have been 60476 (56-0476) a C-130A..

Its an age thing !

Thanks
