Re: B1 arrivals 12/10

Just to clarify - for people like me who are short on the uptake (I've read through all the excellent info - but it makes my head spin!) - am I right in understanding that it was a single pair of B-1's that departed Dyess last night?

Did I understand correctly that the station commander had not flown for 3 years and stepped straight into a single seat Typhoon? No twin stick or cheaper/slower craft as a first step?
Yes that's what was shown - which surprised me somewhat. Maybe they edit out the simulator parts, etc.

Re: Missing F35 over South Carolina

You'd think with the incident being close to the base, they would be able to track the jet on their radars: but then again it is a stealth jet so......
Maybe it carried on out to sea?

I wonder if it will be doing a low level flypast over / behind the assembled team for a final salute like the C130 used to do ?
That brings back happy memories :thumb:

Re: Departures timetable .

So reading through all the posts:
F4 returned because of flight plan problem and France refusing permission to fly over the country (sounds familiar!)
Why did Al Fursan return?
