Grimm,

When I arrived at Cambridge today (15/09) at about 16:00, Qatar C-130J 213/MAJ was noted outside, parked next to the special tail colours RAF example, whilst 211/MAH could be seen inside the large hangar near the parking area of 8T-CA & 99-5480.

Sorry the times don't perfectly match, but hopefully the info is still useful for you.

Regards,

Richard

Thanks for the info. When I first arrived they were moving the aircraft and when I finally got to see it stationary the tail was obscured but it was close to the special marked RAF one. The heat haze was awful when I was there and had trouble reading anything!
Regards
Andrew
