Ospreys due???????

[duran212]

Saw a report of some CV-22's at CYYT (St. John's - International - Canada) with a couple of Hercs.
Any idea if they are coming this way????

Cheers

Saw that, but it was a request for C/Ns for some reported there, I think back in July, suspect the blighters went via Lajes??

[SamP]

They did go through Lajes I believe, were due in Mildenhall at the time

CV-22's have regularly gone via Lajes for quite some time to theatre and back and also North and West Africa.
Supported by Mildenhall MC-130P's i believe at one point when in West Africa? If anyone can confirm.

Can't see them doing the northern route to the UK, as it's quicker/shorter for them to go across the warmer seas to the south via Lajes and Rota/Moron in Spain enroute to theatre...
Going via Mildenhall on the way is an increase in mileage and an uneccessary stop over in my opinion hence why we have *never* seen them over here transiting.

But never say never, Prestwick might get surprised!

Thansk guys, teach me not to read the whole report.
