Won’t just be for the 492nds, the first lot of 493rds have returned from the Middle East today.

Any idea where the 492nd are going after Red Flag? As i read in Combat aircraft they are away for most of the summer.

I'm guessing Hill or Tyndall?

Thanks

The patch they released for the deployment has Nellis for Red Flag and Mountain Home, Idaho on it so guess that's where they're off to.

Cheers!!

Just seen a post from the 48FW, they are at Mountain Home, Idaho for Ex Combat Hammer.

Yes I just saw that too

Thanks

Live munition drops at the UTTR (Utah test & training range).

When will they be back?

Read in Combat aircraft they were away for the summer, so I guess beginning of September?

These have also been noted in USA . 91-302 at red flag. & 98-133 at mountain home. any one know if there was 14 aircraft went.

Hi colt41,

According to a post on SMAS forum, only 12 went and 98-0133 is definitely on the deployment, along with 11 of your list. These 12 have been confirmed by photograph at Nellis.

However, 98-0135 (on your list) has not been photographed, nor 91-0302 - despite a Scramble report listing them at Nellis.

Thanks for that Bob might have to wait until they come back.

Well you can count them next week when they come back .lol

Can anyone confirm the serials of the 5 that returned yesterday as 'Trend11-15' please. Noted trailing over Newcastle at 1600.

They were (in order of landing):-

98-0131/LN
91-0302/LN
91-0315/LN
91-0306/LN
91-0308/LN

Many thanks Bob
