Should be 50+86 from WTD61, so probably returning to Manching.

Yep, I agree, but I SAW a C-160 and ADS-B said GAFW14...

Check 4 messages back, GAFW.. is a WTD61 callsign, GAFW14 showed as 50+86 which is indeed a WTD61 aircraft.

I did... but only AFTER my reply to Ernesto
And of course, being a WTD-61 aircraft and callsign, it IS something you don't hear every day. Thanks for clearing it up; it was a nice catch (if I do say so myself
)

Was clearly visible and hearable over Arnhem around 10pm. Now close to Saarbrücken and descending so I guess it is going into Ramstein for the night. Callsign according to ADS-B is RCH1007 by the way. Can these change en route?

Although it doesn't happen very often, callsigns can technically change en route (e.g. to avoid callsign confusion).
