Also late next week (possibly 24th) there is a rumour of a French Air Force Socata TBM700 Liaison aircraft visiting. We will see if it actually arrives.

Previously mentioned TBM700 showing as due on Flightradar and Radarbox as a French Army example. Callsign FMY8046 tomorrow (24th) morning.

Anyone know if 169227 was hangared again after it's test flight or left outside? One I missed when it arrived last year.

Outside Sunday Morning:
167982/QD USMC
165738/BH
170037/BH
213/MAJ Qatari
409 South African

Not outside as far as I can see.

Okay thanks for the reply Professor much appreciated.

Thanks for the replies. The South African and USMC KC130J 169225 were both still outside this morning.

Anyone know if the South African C130 was still outside this evening?

Nice set of shots liking the German Tornado take off shots

On airtattoo website and recent email looks like the KC-130J refuelling demo with F-35B is only on the Friday. Dont think it was listed as Friday only previously?

German Navy Lynx 83+02 c/s "GNY4611" landed at Wattisham this morning coming in from the east. Believe its still there at the moment but guess this is the one for Yeovilton.

Nice set of pics, thanks for sharing. Shots 2 and 4 for me

Yeah this one was out early Saturday so not here long. Not very AC130 like they normally sit on the deck broken for a while

Also, RCH1006 is on Live Logs over St. Johns, not sure if related to the 1007 westbound?

RCH1006 was the AC-130 that came in on Friday evening and out Saturday so also Westbound back home.

Nice shots Ash, they have come out well considering how dull it was!

Glad our gamble on echo paid off, was good to catch up with you yesterday

Cheers
Chris

Lovely shots some fantastic winter light on these Ash

The job could be to paint anything, could be for just painting the office for all we know

Wouldnt read to much into it, unless they have a bomber paintshop at fairford now

Not sure that job has any significance to Fairford being active or reactivated to be honest. Just looks like they need someone to help do some painting

Great set of pictures Gary. Really like the C130 shots
