San Antonio Intl Airport / SAT : Weds. 26th Jan 2011 @ 17.30

Noted outside the M7 Aerospace facility opposite the civil terminal was a US Army C-23 (with a further example just inside the hangar). Further along the ramp was a partially dismantled KC707/KC-135.
Any offers?

I too would quite like to know the identity of the CASA 212 "02" on the Civil side; Andy, you around? At Getafe on 29th Jan around 11.00 (just after one of the MRTTs took off) were: 35-45 (T21-07) C295M with 35-46 (T21-08), 35-47 (T21-09), 35-50 (T21-12) & 35-53 (T21-13). Crizz, I thin...

Gents, 4 F-22As went to Hickam Friday morning, 3 OTs and a WA (5 launched, 1 came back) with 1 of the KC-10s, Oscar, did you get the nos? FYI 4093 is not at Nellis; based during our visit were WAs 4011, 4109 & 4116/433WPS (plus 4017 not noted), OTs 4111, 4120, 4124 & 4128 (neither 4010/422TE...

The 8 Italian Tornados that arrived 5th December to use the Ovda ranges left on Thursday.
Only 5 codes so far, 6.12, 6.14, 6.25, 6.35 & 50.07, any help with the remainder would be appreciated. (No, I didn't know they were here either!)

Correct as always Mr B - but surprised you missed the deliberate error, the Kamov should be a -32A and according to a very informative Azerbaijani website, it is the FHN-05 (although I sometimes confuse the Cyrillic A and D symbol)

OK, the Canadairs were operating out of Ramat David and noted today were: 866 (2046) CL415 Croatian AF 2044, 2052 & 2054 CL415 Hellenic AF F-ZBFV/37, F-ZBFW/38, F-ZBFY/35 & F-ZBMF/45 CL415 Securite Civile with F-ZBMC/73 DHC-8 The rotary fleet was based at Haifa Airport and noted today were: ...

A third HAF CL215 has been identified, 2049, and two Turkish examples are/were apparently TC-TKJ & TKZ. The Beriev 200 was RF32767 and an open day yesterday at Haifa airport may reveal some rotary serials in due course. The Spanish contingent did not appear in Ben Gurion (even with the correct c...

Noted so far in connection with the Carmel Forest fire have been: 4 x Hellenic AF CL215s incl 2044 & 2052 (operating out of Ramat David AFB) 2 x Turkish AF B412s 1 x Securite Civile Dash 8 RA76393 IL76-TD plus a Beriev water bomber from the Russian Disaster Relief unit and reportedly UK (Cyprus ...

A quick look accross the field at the Maestranza (AMU) revealed 7 CASA 101s:
E25-19/(79.19)
E25-29/(74.45)
E25-41/(74.41)
E25-55/(54.21) (all had their noses covered)
plus "4" in Patrulla Aguilla colours and two more - any ideas

Noted here on 10th Nov (a local bank holiday so no based a/c out) were 5 Airbus 330MRTTs: A39-001/747/EC-330 for RAAF A39-002/951/EC-333 for RAAF A39-003/969/EC-334 for RAAF ZZ331/1046/EC-337 for RAF the last a/c was marked EC-332 which would make it the long term wfu example (although I did note it...

Fresh.co.il are going with serial 480 of 119 squadron which would make it c/n YD041.

Moderator, unfortuantely we can change "still missing" to "lost"

The one in Greenland would be "Pingu"

fresh.co.il are calling the lost a/c 046, one of the first 'yassur 2025" conversions.

If anyone is interested, 7 (!) Iberia AB340s routed JNB/MAD yesterday:
IB2801/EC-LEV (with hastily applied special marks, something to do with football I believe)
IB2815/EC-HGU
IB2813/EC-HGV
IB2899/EC-JPU
IB6052/EC-GUP
IB6050/EC-HQN
IB6054/EC-GGS

Slightly less interesting visitor this morning is 64-(F-RA)PK / 5226 C-130H shortly to depart westbound as CTM5030
