Re: Next batch question
Officially 36 is the capacity for each carrier, with numbers being able to be pushed to upper 50s in surge conditions.
Routinely, 12 RAF/FAA F-35Bs per carrier are intended to be carried, with an additional USMC contingent of another 12 equalling 24, as MRTT stated before.
Re: Next batch question
thanks for information MRTT

Re: Next batch question
Do you "REALLY" think so ... they are in no position to know weather, aircraft servicability or be privy to the "on the day" planning from the AARC team
As with all these tasks ... they are subect to change and unless you're "part of it" you'll never fully know until it happens ...
Everything up to that point is totally conjecture.

I've moved the last few posts from the ASCOT tracking thread to here, as it's a more suitable location

Re: Next batch question
Another couple of early hours NOTAM change for MCAS Beaufort...

But tomorrow never comes
Re: Batch 2 question
I'm going to move the last few posts to the general info area for the F-35s.
To answer the question as of 11.58, there are no Shanwick or Santa Maria ALTRV posted, so at the moment it's looking unlikely they will be here tomorrow

Re: Batch 2 question
As I posted earlier in the week the current plan is supposed to be Friday. Also possibly 4 not 5 airframes. All info TBC.
