No, unfortunetaly not. However a friend is in the neighbourhood there and he wants to pay a visit and I believe that this is his last week there.
Are the nightops for the entire week? And how late does the flying start? So I can warn him!

Warm regards,

As from what I can find in the EMOOS, this might very well be the MM6505, can anyone confirm this?

Looks a lot like this one http://www.airliners.net/photo/Italy--- ... 0473006/L/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; and this one http://www.i-f-s.nl/pres/SE/MM6505.jpg" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; wich is according to the International F-104 Society MM6505.

Hope this helps.
