Ocean Sky 21 now includes EART 21

Looking at the "patch" it looks to include Greek,Italian,German and French units

Have a look at the 28 second Promo

Pete,

There has been a change of plans to those I told you about a few weeks ago.

There will now be an Ocean Sky media day at Gando on 21 October. This is in addition to the initial one I mentioned, taking place at Lanzarote on the 26th. However, that media day will still not involve any fighters.

Pat.

Another change of plans.
In addition to the two media days (Gando/Lanzarote) there will also now be the usual "spotters day" at Gando on the 20th - subject to the nearby volcanic eruptions.

On Monday 25 October there were 2 F18's in the hangar. One of them was the 46-03. The other one was in the left corner of that hangar. Anybody has an idea which one that could be?
Thanks in advance.

Any help with following questions will be much appreciated:
1) In the maintenance hangar F/A-18 with code 46-03 could be seen on Monday 26th. In the corner, left side of this hangar another F/A-18 could be seen. Anyone knows which one this could be?
2) Can somebody provide a log from the morning mission on Wednesday 27th October?
3) On Friday 29th October I saw A-400 (T.23-02, according ASDB) and a French A-330 (F-UJCK 045 according ASDB). Was there somebody on the fence who can confirm this?
4) Also on Friday October 29th 2 pumas were flying, one landed at 10.45hrs and the other one flew to Tenerife and back, landed about 13.00hrs (on ADSB as COTOS12). Anybody know which two these were?
