ZZ110 = 0279.
Freeman

So the bean counters may be thinking if we pay for modifications and fit the AN/APS-154 AAS pod then we can cut the E-7 fleet requirement. It was my understanding that part of the large hangar is being given over along with support facilities to the Reds when they arrive. The East hangar will be bu...

N would have been ZJ129.

Hi J, The answer to your question is buried within ' UK Heads up. Movements & OTT. I don't think you can view this as you haven't posted the enabling number of posts (5) on here. So, it looks like your lucky numbers were: ZH827,837,840,841,851 & 857. If there's anything anyone else can add to this, ...

and cafe's!

Is that really an apostrophe or just a mis-placed acute accent?
Freeman

Andy,
0280 was back in the wash rack at 1100hrs today ( and readable from the western end). ZZ110 was back on the flight line concurrently.
Freeman

It wasn't in the wash rack at 1545hrs. ZZ110 was in the flight shed though.
Freeman

And it's just the latest images for France and Greece, is it not? Earlier images are unaffected.
Freeman

BN managed 81 troops as a HC1 back in '82. Still a record for troops perhaps?
Freeman

Wonderful shots Bruno. Thanks for sharing.

I still see a light twinkling in the distance, but it may only be a matter of time til that light disappears!

It will disappear - it's a Typhoon landing at Leuchars!

Good line!

Freeman

Thanks Chris. That's very well explained.
Now, is RCH036 (into Mildenhall this pm) currently a C-46 because it hasn't a refuelling mission and was it categorised as a ( )-46 when it hadn't got a a cargo mission a while back. Just asking.

Interesting shot

Wonder how , if at all, that aerial configuration has changed over the years.

Mike,
I imagine that Bob Archer's latest (recently mentioned under 'Aviation books to read') might have your answer.
Freeman

Thanks for reporting from the front line 'Merlin whilst the rest of us are staying in the shade. See you on the fence when the cooler air returns.
Freeman

Hi Jon, There are a number of superb modellers showing their incredible work on here. All extremely entertaining to look at.
Your style though means your builds are a must see for me.
Freeman

Mike,
I logged 76-0164 on 16.5.82 at Leavesden. Could that be your 'frame? You might have climbed up the bank and have been looking through trees?
Freeman

Have all the Saudi new builds been delivered yet chap?
Freeman

Isn't A330MRTT an Airbus designation and KC-30 an operator designation? Both the MMF and Australia use the latter.
Freeman

Very likely. It flew in deepest Cornwall before returning east into Portland (according to VR)
Freeman

Yes, visible for weeks. You need to choose the right night to see all four moons though.
