Re: Keflavik Airport
There is a thread on here somewhere showing CNV7555 as 163555
Not sure whether this is a pole off or an electronic hit.

Re: Keflavik Airport
Hi Mike,
You've got two ANG C-130Hs on their way to you (RCH111 74-2132 and RCH597 74-1691). Could you please read them off, as it looks like there is a dual usage of hex [AE0320] 74-2132.
Many Thanks.

Re: Keflavik Airport
Can really recommend Iceland for sightseeing as the scenery is amazing. I was based mainly in Reykjavik near the old airport in the hotel Natura which over looks the ramp at BIRK. They have a shuttle bus into the city but it is only 25 minutes walk to the city and the hotel is handy for the motorway network to get around the island.
Bit quiet aviation wise but I did make an F-4E on a stick around the back of Keflavik airbase.
The Hotel Aurora ( rooms 511/512 etc) give a reasonable view of the airfield at KEF and over looks the 19 approach and 01 departure end. I had a rental car but you probably can get around to the mil/biz side by bus as the cheaper hotels are on the old base.
I was informed that scramble are saying that Norwegian F-35 might be deploying here next March so I will hopefully come back.
