Hi Guys,
Had a quick spin around the base today on our way home, any info' on the visiting C130 and KC 135, also the serial of the RC would be really appreciated..
Cheers

The RC-135V is 64-14841, the visiting KC-135R is 63-7999.

Big questions on the C-130 are:-
- Where was it?
- What colour was it and did it have a fin band?
- Did you count the C-130s on SOG row?

I'm just back and will put a log up for everything I saw today. There were 4 x C130's (different variants) lined up. There was also a USN C130 parked. No flights in or out when I was there.

Log to follow

164598 [RU] - KC-130T-30 [VR-55] (US Navy)
99-1933 - EC-130J [193 SOS/193 SOW]
87-0024 - MC-130H [7 SOS]
12-5757 - MC-130J [67 SOS]

Can't help with the other MC-130J I'm afraid.

Hope this helps anyway.

Thanks for this info', brilliant, the C130 was parked near the tower, seemed a lot lighter grey than the SOG aircraft, if that helps?
