Thanks BOLLO currently in the process of making a central thread with the positions of all the aircraft used for G7 including serials etc. Don't suppose you happen to know if the two due into Culdrose will depart off somewhere after dropping there cargo.

I agree with you BOLLO but people will find it difficult and confusing to sort through multiple threads to find the whereabouts of the aircraft they are after I have tried to create all the information in a central format that is easy to read.

Might it be worth having your aircraft location thread locked to avoid that thread expanding?

I agree tornado17 I will ask one of the mods to lock it.

I will aim to keep the thread updated at least daily. Many thanks all for the information you post it helps a lot.

Does anyone have a serial for the two VH-3's at Culdrose? And the second one at Northolt?

From sky news

Prime Minister Modi will be appearing virtually instead of travelling to the UK due to the severity of the pandemic in India at present.
Not bad considering India is not part of the G7

Group of Seven (G7) is an informal club of wealthy democracies consisting of Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the United Kingdom and the United States

India is part of the G20 that incls Russia, China, Brazil and others
In my understanding from reading the papers the host country can invite four other countries. The G7 summit next weekend is really the tip ( or summit) of the iceberg where premiers glad hand each other and rubber stamp any agreements reached in this and previous week's between the various ministers of state.

Is there a State Banquet happening at Buckingham palace? We all know old man Joe is meeting the Queen at Windsor directly after the G7 but I thought there was also a pre-summit nose bag?

PS. In view of the VH-3 at Northolt, is Potus flying direct to Newquay or will he land first at Stansted and overnight at the Ambassador's residence? Probably this information is not public yet or is it?

E-4 won't be far away might go to Europe? So many questions. Sorry.
Had a tour around Windsor Castle today....there is no State banquet planned for Biden,either at Buck Pal or Windsor......as our guide stated...”He is not on a State visit”. According to the guide,Biden is apparently having a “Curtesy visit,with tea etc,with the Queen”. In respect of this,I assume that Biden’s helos etc, will land somewhere off the “long walk” in Windsor Great Park.

Saw this on an American radio website, it’s allegedly a White House press.brief.


Wednesday, June 9, 2021
POTUS & FLOTUS will travel to the United Kingdom.

POTUS & FLOTUS will greet US Air Force personnel and their families stationed in the United Kingdom at Royal Air Force Mildenhall. RAF Mildenhall is home to the 100th Air Refueling Wing, the only permanent U.S. Air Force air refueling wing in the European theater.

AF1 to Mildenhall or personnel to AF1?

On the last presidential visit to Windsor Castle the helicopters landed in Home Park to the east of the Castle.

That is interesting - I bumped into a CNN crew in Pollard's last week , they had been up in 57-1440 to film the B-52 NATO 01 with a typhoon and hawk. They were a really friendly bunch and showed me the film on their laptop. Anyhow they mentioned a small CNN crew would be back at Mildenhall for the purpose mentioned above. At the time I took it all with a pinch of salt to be honest.

Does the Wednesday schedule mean leaving Washington on Wednesday with an overnight flight to Mildenhall and arriving on Thursday 10th or actually arriving on Wednesday 9th which would be an early morning departure from Washington?

Suspect early morning flight for a late afternoon arrival, meet and greet and then overnight to London.
Meet Boris Thursday morning then back to AF1 to Newquay ready for meeting the next day.
Sunday AF1 to London,possibly LHR , quick cuppa at Windsor then onto Brussels.
