Seymour Johnson - F15’s transiting through

Post by **slogen51** » Tue Apr 10, 2018 7:51 am

Visibility at 08:45 is very poor at the 24 end

If you want to be sure of reading off departures then you need to be at the 06 end

There are two kc-10’s here. One has left as clean17

Clean17 has just crossed the south coast, apparently towing a flight of 3x F-15s (Tabor 61, 62, 62)

Should be 6 LN F-15s with it.

That makes sense. Only each flight leader with transponders on, then.

Can we keep this thread on subject please i.e SJs and not LNs for those of us who subscribe to it. There is a separate thread for the departing LNs. Thanks

Oops, sorry !

OK, Clean61 is just about to cross the Italian coast near Genoa, heading NW.
Will that be the inbound SJs ?

Correct, flight of four. Believe the tanker is going into Mildenhall.

87-0181
88-1687
87-0176

Not sure how far Tabor 31/32 got?
