Beja - NTM2021

Post by ehusmann » Wed May 05, 2021 9:17 am

Currently at Beja for the Tigermeet, seen either last Friday (by a friend), or yesterday (by me):
F-16AM - 313 Sqn - J-003, J-008, J-011, J-021, J-063, J-512, J-515, J-516, J-641, J-646
F-16AM - Esq 301 - 15105, 15109, 15114, 15116, 15143
F-16BM - Esq 301 - 15119
F-16C - 335 Mira - 009, 015, 016
F-16D - 335 Mira - 021
F-16C - 6 elt - 4041, 4045, 4047, 4049, 4052, 4053, 4054, 4057, 4060, 4062
F/A-18C - Flst 11 - J-5006, J-5008, J-5011, J-5020
F-2000A - 21 Gr - MM7308/36-31, MM7343/36-50, MM7347/..-.., MM7349/36-54
TF-2000A - 21 Gr - MM55094/36-60

There are probably more Portuguese F-16s at Beja, the above 6 flew on Tuesday.
Furthermore EH.101 19610 was identified on NTM pictures and AW.119 29704 was flying in the morning on Tuesday. In the afternoon one Koala joined the Merlin for an NTM mission, but that one could not be read.

Not an aweful lot, for obvious reasons, but I still managed to get 15 new out of this lot.

Well, it is a little less lite than the above shows, there is also an Italian chopper!
At least one HH-212 is present, evidenced by this picture: https://www.flickr.com/photos/forcaaere ... 157181074/

That should make all the difference :thumb:

last day of the Tiger meet , seems strange that an event like this has come and gone , with little to no fuss , i know that many of us would of gone given the chance.
But it seems to have taken place with little interest even from our continental cousins. Strange times
seen Greek F-16s plotting heading home along with the Polish F-16s .
Greek and Italian herc,s inbound.
