Seen on FaceBook yesterday a chap had put up some shots of 2 F-15QAs arriving in to Seymore Johnson after doing some app work under BOE c/s.Both were "slik" with no tanks fitted, not sure if they departed or not. Can't be long now for the next delivery to come over ??

There was a rumour that the next batch of QA were going to red flag 23-2 à la RSAF F-15SA a year or two ago

Could be affected by the current weather situation in CONUS. They are even reporting the possibility of blizzards in Los Angeles (Fact not rumour).

LA covers a huge area and you do tend to get a lot of snow over the mountain ranges, you can go from surfing off the coast to snowboarding in the mountains in just a couple hours there.

I have been to LA many times and know the region fairly well. The weather report was for anywhere in LA not just the mountains.

Are the 4 x F15QA's still parked up at Mildenhall ?
Planning an "early one" on Monday if they are, is the usual departure time 6am?
Any help appreciated

Hi
Yes, saw last night only chance I had to see them was a midnight bash between shifts from Heathrow.
Parked at the usual spot can be seen from Folly Road or Pollards Lane.

Great information indeed but just to dot the Is and cross the Ts, the 0 after the hyphen doesn’t exist ie, they are actually 17-001, 17-002 etc.
