Can you confirm this is marked 55893 on the tail not 75893 (for FY 17) ??
I'll see if I can find out for you.
FBO confirms as 55893.
Appreciate that, thank you.

I suspect one of the F-35s issues is that only a fraction of its...

Re: The 'Hall and the 'Heath - good neighbors

Wow, great pics, brings back memories, I remember logging about 40 F-100s at the Mildenhall show on 22May71. Moving the RC's to Mildenhall from Heyford wasn't personally popular though as Heyford was much close to home!
