USN Beech landed at Corpus Christi yesterday, 170744.. is this the first T-54 (T-44 replacement) or just something passing through? Thanks.

Does anybody have any information on how to register for the Istres air show at the end of September, it’s the 90th anniversary of the French Airforce. Previous emails said it’s restricted to 50,000 visitors each day (Saturday/Sunday) and you must register in advance for a place. There is no charge ...

AF-450 is in the early stages of production.

23-57xx not 22-57xx?

Yesterday's press release from USN say they hope to repair the P-8 and return it to service due to very little damage occurring. Time will tell if that actually happens.

Is this something new that is asked for? Having done the flights a few times this has never been required in the past. Thanks.

170066 is clearly in the video.. not sure sure about 170065. Did they both arrive?

Tucano, Super Tucano and AMX, plus license build of Saab Gripens.. they have done quite a lot.

Now I understand why Swedish Air Force continued the use of C-130 and followed Germany and France. The Swedish Tp84s already are the oldest C-130s in Europe. By 2040 they will nearly be 85 years of age! :shock: Perhaps the type identification was chosen to align the number with their retirement age...

The Rockies are nowhere near McChord though. The mountains at McChord are the Cascade Mountains (includes Mt Rainier).

Agree with Norton as the location.

TIA

Not yet unfortunately.

Greets,

F-16.net has..

BK-22. ZM156 169928
BK-23 ZM157 169929
BK-24. ZM158 169930

I would think that if AF-302 is the first for Lakenheath then its serial will be xx-5495? Regards Mark Not if the next block of USAF F-35A are AF-280 onwards and start 19-5452 (following on from AF-279 18-5451) as AF-302 would be quite a bit before 5495 .. but as already mentioned we will know very...
