Scramble has Italian EF2000s too and there was a KC-767 at Gando today according to ADS-B

Thanks for the info Wayne. I hope to be there on Tuesday, so this is very useful.

The Mirage 2000D which didn't fly either day I was there is 30-JF according to photos on Facebook. Scramble database has this as 641. But special tail 30-JW had 641 on the nosewheel door. https://www.flickr.com/photos/68498610@N03/53249647934/in/datetaken/ Thanks - I think the Scramble database has...

So the German EF2000s on Thursday morning were 30+72, 30+53, 31+13 and 30+69.
Sorry for the error.

Sorry, Mike, 31+69 is a mistake isn’t it. I will check what it should have been when I get home.

Brilliant - that explains why I couldn't see the special Greek on the flight line.
Yes, I too saw 43+59 arrive on the Friday after lunch.
Thanks to everyone who has filled in all the gaps.

Thanks Shalter - are you sure about the Greek because I read one of the other F-16s as 003?

Just an update to my logs above which might be helpful to any one going this week. First there were a few new arrivals on Friday: Greek F-16D 029 in the morning and EF2000T 31+25, Tornado 43+59 and Hungarian 32 after lunch. French helicopters (which all flew on Friday) were Tigres BJI and BHK and Ga...

The base is quite open. There is a road to the west of the base that follows the fence line and gives good views of the western runway which was the one used for most movements on the two days I was there. You can see most of the parked aircraft although some will be quite distant. The hardest thing...

Additional aircraft that flew in the afternoon but not in the morning were: MM7325/36-44 31+02 E-2C number 3 4061 and 4055 and D model 4082 FA-107 Czech 9245 and 9237 - the Czechs are parked right in the south of the field One of the Tigres is coded BJI Then at about 5pm all the special schemes took...

All have returned by 13.10LT landing on 32L. Also up this morning we’re two HH101s, 2 gazelles and 2 tigers. The French helicopters are parked in the southern corner to the west of the runways.

First take-offs from 14R just before 11.00LT: 46+35, 40, 49, 38 30+72, 53, 69 and 31+13 360/30-SI and 361/30-SJ 15109, 15110, 15131 4046, 4060 019, 015, 007, 003 MM7314/36-33 and 7321/-43, 7322/40, 7344/-51 FA13(6) XTiger, FA131, 126, 94 641/30-JW, 646/30-MQ 36, 43, 39 and 30 7-WE, 7-WG (these were ...

Just been for a walk along the western perimeter. In the northern corner are the Swiss: J-5014, 21, 07, 04 and 11 (special tail but up on jacks at the moment. Then a line of 10 F-16s, six Polish and four Greek and then further along another six Belgian. The Hungarians are in the shelters between the...

Finally!!! After 12 days of constantly trying to load the website and getting repeated blocking messages, I have just got through and been sent a ticket for the spotters' day. So, if you are having problems too, don't give up!

I was looking that way for Reach476 and saw the big arcing trail - nice fluke.

Thanks for your help Mike. I win the idiot of the year prize though for getting the date wrong. I meant 1992 which would explain why the T for tactical was still on the markings. I think the designation changed officially in November 1991.

Would anyone be able to help with the identities of several SW F-16C that I saw on the above dates with special markings:

"33rd TFS" blue fin flash
"363TFW" blue fin flash
"363 TFW" white fin flash (might have been 89-085)
"363 TFW" yellow fin flash
"9th Air Force" yellow fin flash

From doing a quick bit of research, I think (I am no expert) there were eight squadrons of CF-104s based in Europe in the early 1960s. 439 and 441 at Marville, 421 and 430 at Grostenquin, 427 and 434 at Zweibrucken and 422 and 444 at Baden Solligen. When France took control of nuclear weapons based ...

Thanks for the tie-up. Much appreciated.
