The 2nd one was from And0ya in Norway but appears to have flown with transponder switched off as there no record of it on tracking sites that I can see. I can't get my PC to put the line through the zero in And0ya like it is in Norwegian.

More P8s coming. 168438 due in at noon Sunday and back out 1.30pm, round robin Sigonella. TRDNT76

[rik1301]

Actually make that 11am and half noon as clocks go to zulu tonight.

[vulcanxl425]

Thanks again rik1301 for info on P8's. Seems to be regular taxi service from and to Sig.

[rik1301]

I think there could be some exercise or operation going on in the ocean north of you. There's been a lot of traffic off the coast of Norway past few weeks. There's a MADFOX P8 also flying around up there between Iceland and Norway and a number of P8s back and forth from Sigo to Norway as well.

Thanks rik1301, Exercise Trident Juncture 2018 is currently underway Northern Norway. Thanks again for your information.
Cheers.

Does 168764 carry a tailcode?
