Some of the withdrawn RAF C130J's are reportedly for a middle eastern air force.

Hi Paul,

I visited on Tues 26 July and noted from the Britannia Gate from L to R, ZM406, ZM405 and an unidentified RAF A400M, was this ZM410?

And was is next to ZM405 on Sunday 24 July?

Apologies for the ignorance even after looking at a map where is the "Brampton road"?

Hi all, Due to the tragic and fatal crash of Airbus Industries A400M - EC-403 / A4M023 (msn 023) on take-off from Seville Airport on 9 May 2015, Sky news reports that both RAF A400M's are currently grounded. This will probably also apply to the visiting A4M016 - Airbus Industries A400M ( msn 016). h...

A Skyvan marked as G-BEOL was noted by myself on Sat 13 and Sun 14 Dec.

The RAF are now operating TWO dark green Skyvans.

So G-PIGY maybe have been misidentified?

HTH
