New Jupiter showing in circuit this morning

Post by reds1966 » Fri Sep 25, 2020 8:26 am

360Radar is showing SYS93 in the circuit at Shawbury at present with a hex of 43C92D. Following the sequence that has been issued so far this should be Jupiter ZM499 and would be the first time I have seen it flying since delivery from Oxford.

If anyone sees it and confirms the serial I will let the Admin at 360Radar know to update the database.

Thanks,
Martin

Was there around 11:00 today and 499 was outside being refuelled. None of the other new ones about... was at valley earlier in the week too and unfortunately only saw 532 and 518.

ZM497 has just recovered to Valley after operating around Mona.

Mick thanks that's great. 499 is at Shawbury and the one that will become 496 is in the hangars at Shawbury too somewhere but was delivered much later than the others and hasn't emerged with the military marks yet. As Sparky and Alf point out 497 and 498 are at Valley.

Thanks again,
Martin
