Re: List of numbers F-16 BAF

BAF501 (FA-89/44F109) has just flown past my window at 14,900'. Unfortunately due heavy scattered cloud I could not tell if it was a solo (and if I should find out that FA-126 was it's unseen buddy.... :censored: :censored: ) The NAF43 (T-235) was presumably doing the tanking. This morning there wa...

Re: Wie wat waar vliegt daar - 2021 MIL

Nu boven Drenthe "KDIAK74" van oost naar west op FL220 en 202KTS. ADSBex kent het toestel (nog) niet. Vertrek was vanaf Hannover-Langenhagen. Welke kist is dit? Now over Drenthe province (NL) callsign "KDIAK74" from east to west at FL220 en 202Kts, coming from Hannover-Langenhagen. ADSBex has no id...

Re: Operational Dutch F-16's

From what I heard, next year several F-16's will be saved as they will be instructional airframes at the "Leerdocks" at Volkel, Leeuwarden, Woensdrecht and Eindhoven. This most likley will mean, that some OCU F-16's present at those leerdocks, will be reduced to scrap.

Re: Operational Dutch F-16's

F-16 showing as J-062 mode-s wise, currently airborne as COWBOY21. Not sure why it is removed from the operational list. Because this is her first flight since 2015! Jordy I know, but she was never (as far as I am aware) slated to be withdrawn. She lost her airworty certificate, and I believe a lot...

Re: Wie wat waar vliegt daar BELGIUM - 2020 CIV

Sun November 1st, two Australian aircraft are chatting along on 137.000; seems they are on a delivery flight and were asked the question why this route. The answer was they normally fly via the pacific but covid prevented that. It is another five days before they reach their destination. They are sh...

Re: 2 x KDC-10 (RCH700 & RCH701) : ''we have already pissed-off this lady enough''

They were talking about refueling themselves, not the B-52's. Believe the issue they mentioned earlier was difference between FAA and ICAO regulations and decided to cancel their AAR plans between each other. (My guess about AAR above populated area's or outside refuel track) They swapped positions ...
