FrN Atlantique 14 Now In!?!

Post by SamP » Thu Apr 15, 2010 10:24 am

Popped down this morning to find 3x French Navy Atlantique Atlantiques parked up, 19 Parked down by the FRA Falcons & 13 & 14 Parked behind the tower with the RNZAF P-3 & CAF CP-140

The interesting thing is... I think this has been here for about a week now. Mike (Flaps) noticed that in one of photographic post someone had caught an Atlantique that when magnified, looked like it was No.14. On Tuesday I also heard ''Atlantique No.14'' call up to do engine runs on the ground, started his engines & both Atlantiques visable were not running! I also heard nothing arrive last night apart from FrN Atlantique 19 returning from a mission as ''2IF'' in the early hours; it wasn't parked up when I went down at 00:30

So has this been parked out of sight, either hangared or in the woods, cause it doesnt look like it arrived!
Anyone shed some light on this?
