Re: February 2019 Log/Movements
yes I assumed wrongly was a dev flt as PFAT1s are like rocking horse droppings at mo. climbed to FL400 for high speed run after emerg sqwk. all on pfat schedule....waiting at end rwy for it to return in the twilight zone...
ZK438 (BS154) landed 1711z after PFAT1. Did wheels up low approach to rwy 07 then t&go on 25 @ 1702z followed by low approach/goround. then out to east behind J41 GMAJA which was
i/b. then a high o/shoot 1708z circuit to land and pop brake chute. Note: this jet was seen last Nov out on NW side airfield for ground trials minus RAF serial.
Cheers

Re: February 2019 Log/Movements
Tues 12/2/19
C-21A Learjet 84-0096 "Valor 76" ILS+o/shoot rwy 25 @ just after 1015z. Climbed to nth initially just off coast to join controlled airspace at Deans Cross (DCS).
Based Ramstein with 76th AS/86th AW; think this type is being withdrawn from USAF use later this year or early next year.
cheers
