the C.17 will probably stay for a couple of days if it follows previous patterns,Off Airways wrote: ↑Fri Jun 22, 2018 3:09 pmThanks for that ... Confirmation on both these arrivals would be greatly appreciated as I'm passing through at 3am tomorrow morning.

Re: Stansted 22/06/18
Well from what I can now gleam from the Stansted Google Group an individual posted a note about a "Rare" C-17A (Can.AF) ... which then changed a Qatari C-17, quite where MAA came from I stll have not discovered!
... as it stands I'm not aware of any C-17 CURRENTLY at Stansted but the USAF C-40C is definately there.
Hope this helps someone.

It was due from Cold Lake in Canada, so the poster was trying to inform but didnt have details of the actual aircraft apart from type, so it was presumed to be Canadian Forces.Off Airways wrote: ↑Fri Jun 22, 2018 8:05 pmWell from what I can now gleam from the Stansted Google Group an individual posted a note about a "Rare" C-17A (Can.AF) ... which then changed a Qatari C-17, quite where MAA came from I stll have not discovered!
