2 cargo 747's brought equipment in - the other one was from Kalitta Air.BAVC10 wrote: ↑Fri Nov 17, 2023 12:04 pmAny insight as to whether it's collecting equipment from the deployment (assume so as it flew in from Germany) or whether it's brought some spares over for the B1 that still seems to be tech?
I know the equipment for the deployment was mainly brought in on the Atlas Air 747 (watched it being unloaded) so would anyone know if this went back on the National 747 or was that for pax only like the Omni 767 (given where both parked)?
