Re: Orleans Airshow 24/25 May 2025

Thanks for posting the log and seems not too bad of a day out! Could you confirm the Rafale codes of 105 & 364 were actually (EC)33? Or should the have read 30?

Re: Exercise Iniochos 2025

I get your point, but no need to send your report of March-31st, as that was not what I requested. :whistle: There were about 25~30 other spotters venturing around Tatoi at the same time I was there, even outside the base. And some of them have already reached out to me by PM or through other boards.

Re: Exercise Iniochos 2025

Surely like the rest of us you log and count what you read yourself? If you didn’t read any then it begs the question why not? Regards Mark Normally I do my own logging, but since I was in company of others that don't fancy loitering outside Greek airbases, I respected their wishes and had to settl...

Re: Exercise Iniochos 2025

Any kind soul who visited Tatoi on Sunday 6th of April and able to share the ID's of the Tecnams and PZL M-18's they have read? I have seen some serials from Saturday and Sunday before, but there seem to be some discrepancies between those. 10x Tecnam; 337, 338, 342, 344, 345, 346, 347, 348, 349, 35...

Athens

Arriving this morning from Cairo was Beech1900 4801/SU-BKV. Not sure where it is parked now nor when it will depart.

Might be of interest as many will venture towards Andravida on Monday.

Re: LOG: Waddington CW 06/03/2025

Nice log. Where did you see PR010? I heared from others PR009/SM was parked in front of a hangar. I did see one too parked up, from rwy02 end, in front of a hangar across the Airseeker on the ramp. Unable to read it.

REQ: Protector outside 6/3/2025

Perhaps a long shot, but I'd give it a go anyway.

I noted a Protector drone in front of one of the hangar (accross the RC-135 ramp). Anyone here that perhaps can let me know which it was?!

Osprey's long shot

On both March 5 & 6th I noted 5 CV-22's on the ramp. Only 4 we're read off on the 5th and only 3 on the 6th. Anyone perhaps for the last one(s)?

08-0048 5/6th
08-0049 5/6th
11-0057 5th
11-0058 5/6th

Marham LOG+REQ 5/3/2025

I dropped by this afternoon for a quick hit and run on the F-35's whilst enroute from Mildenhall to Coningsby. The sheds we're quite empty, but a few moments later I realized they were launching them. Between 15:40-15:45 2x 2 ships launched and another 2-ship shortly before 4pm. Sheds: ZM13(7)/003 (...

Ones to watch. 6 X RCH Dyess C130s ( RCH 301 - 306) heading over the Atlantic from Bangor, RCH 303 just leaving the Newfoundland coast at 2250. Dyess Hercs have transited PIK before so hopefully they are headed here.
Unfortunately they routed south (Lajes).

Re: Lossiemouth Friday 31/1

Interesting Niall! YB431 is a VP-1 bird (168431) and co-incidently the last 3 callsigns do match up the serial of 169337. So in case of a frame swap, it's worth looking out if 168431 is indeed deployed now to Europe.

169337 is up now by the looks of it.

Re: Lossiemouth Friday 31/1

Did either one of these actually land at Lossie? I noted YB757 too over the Netherlands yesterday (from photo I can see sqn mks/code on the tail of this one). The track of that one seemed Keflavik-Sigonella in a direct line, like Kurnass mentioned. I also understand that 168757 was at Lossie on 24/1...
