My apologies. I have been working on too many things lately. You are correct, Aviano’s into Rota, not Moron

Rota wrecks & relics

Post by Kevin Brewer »

The latest Scramble W&R update (for which thanks!) mentions an AB.212 "preserved close to H369 HS.13-8 and is visible from outside".

Planning a possible visit next week - can anyone give me a precise location for these aircraft please, and/or location from which they can be viewed from outside the base?

Thanks
