Thank you mazzel, probabily they swop an aircraft at least last week, because noted today flying with the 510th FS was a "new" F-16CJ: 90-0813/SP.

(notes: as the departure day for the SANICOLE airshow turned out to be a low-key affair, I used my final vacancy day for a combined journey to Geilenkirchen and Spangdahlem, thus hunting interesting USAF aircraft. Luckily, the weather at Geilenkirchen was far better than forecasted and the two expected tankers arrived early and could well be enjoyed in nice sunshine. A fast car ride through the Belgian “Hautes Fagnes” to Spang allowed even for experiencing based aircraft returning from the morning missions, followed by sorties of 16 F-16s and three A-10s during the afternoon. A very nice suprise were two inbound A-10s each equipped with two travel-pods and an external fuel-tank. Also of interest were two based completely unarmed F-16s swopped for use on loan by the 31stFW at Aviano, the aircraft change supported by a visiting F-16D. Three very welcome visiting C-17s completed this great day under the sign of USAF operations)
