Mini-US invasion this Sunny Sunday morning: KC-135R 38018 from the 155th Nebraska ANG (there was an AK Boomer two weeks ago, both were involved in the recent Juniper Cobra exercise) and a very pleasant C-17A 66164 from the 60th at Travis.

Further to Coati's post, fresh.co.il report the following: AS-1 & 2 will be from LRIP-8 in "late 2016" - 2 a/c "delivered" in 2016 was "promised" recently AS-3 - 9 LRIP-9 also 2016 AS-10 - 19 LRIP-10 in 2017 AS-20 - 26 LRIP-11 in 2018 AS-27 - 33 FRP-1 in 2019 There seem to be 17 "options" to follow.

I am absolutely not worthy of appearing in this thread, but one aeroplane was missing in 2013 ....



Now fully restored after a very long rebuild

Near the terminal. Hard to find due to heatwaves and other obstacles, but it is there

85-24410 (as 0-24410) departed LLBG in a C-17 late last week

The French are quite chic, plastic folding chairs are right out. Get into the "esprit":

OK then, move me to the civil section ... and Mr 30mm will have something to say about it!

So I should delete them from my files as they've become civil since I first logged them Please pass the tippex!

Interesting visitor yesterday, 21st May, a long way from home (sorry, forgot to move the cone):

Noted at this major Moscow Airport for the Victory Day celebrations was Armenian AF AB319CJ 701

A bit late but if anyone is interested I have just heard:
The Monino Air Museum will be open on 10 May from 10 a.m. till 16 p.m. Welcome you are.
Go get ´em!

Not sure if this is in the right place but no doubt the Moderator will assist: Departing LLBG just now is 103 squadron C-130J 662 with 661 in trail. Both are packed full of desperately needed humanitarian aid for the distressed region. B.707 295 should be joining shortly. And here is the 661 ready t...

I have understood that the southern bank of the Moskva river opposite the Red Square give a rather good view. OK so now we know from where to spot the flypast, but is anyone from Scrambleland thinking of visiting Moscow for the weekend in question? There would appear to be loads of numbers availabl...

Just wondering why this site is in English? Yes, I went to Eindhoven Airport, in 1983, here is the log (just the "ticks"): K-3017, K-3049, K3058 (that was in 1980), K-3060, K-3061 (82 - gosh, three visits - must have been en-route to the White Horse bar), K-3069, K-3073 (85 - wow, was I a thirsty la...

Noted outside at Long Beach end-Jan were N270ZD, N271ZD, N272ZD and 177705. I thought it odd that the latest would be the only one in customer colours. As an aside 00223 was in Ben Gurion, Israel, yesterday / this morning currently the "last" USAF a/c.
