My mistake it's only 1 CP140 :Oops: But the C17 is still coming :thumb: O there is also 2 USN P3s on the ground at Kinloss. I can only read 1 of the nose numbers 921 :thumb:

That should be 158921 Niall.
I've heard that there's 3 x CP-140's due tonight but,as you say,1 is more realistic !
When's the CC-177 due buddy,any idea ?

This JW will be covered better than all previous exercises as we're lucky to have a lot more local members.

A report on Scotavnet says that the 2 USN P-3's are 158216/LC and (158921)/LD.
The 1st one can't be right,can it ?

No problem with 158216, but have now found 4 'long in the tooth' punters who seem to need BOTH P3s,including me, so, looks like the A9 is going to be busy this week!
