Hi,

Is a very tight schedule.....

All 12(!) are doing Bahrein - Sigonella today. Then they say LN tomorrow and back home on Saturday with no crewrest at all???

So the first wave didn't make it on Tuesday, apparently only the tanker went to LICZ.....

Again time will tell...

They won't NOTAM the base open until there is a reason for them to do so, same with posting the oceanic ALTRV. Once and if the F-18s arrived the base will be NOTAMED open

I might have to have a "Doctor's appointment" tomorrow

[galaxysi]

noticed on Sig passenger facebook page that a USMC KC-130J 'RAIDER 02' is due out to LN sat morning.guessing this is support as its unusual for them to go into LN.

[EGLL_EGGW-Spotter]

The 2 KC10s that arrived in Sig were 87-0122 & 87-0124

I have all the time in the world but cant be arsed at them times,nearly a day wasted

[oscar01]

Back to the facts (from all the dentist and other crap).....

Things seem to have changed again. 12 due in today (filed), but 6 due out mid day tomorrow, and 6 due out mid day Sunday.

But as so far every day something changed, I think we might see more changes......
