Scramble Messageboard

Since its RAT is deployed, I'm tempted to think that it suffered an in-flight power failure.

This could potentially be PT-17 (N2S-4), N62AG.
Have a look online to see if this is the one you're looking for.

You also may want to check this link for the history of this particular airframe:
https://www.aerialvisuals.ca/AirframeDo ... rial=37850

According to the Dutch news site www.nos.nl, the wreckage has been located in the sea, near its destination Palana.
No updates regarding the 28 occupants.

EDIT: same source now claims that there are no survivors...

As far as I know, no Lynx today.

However, we did have a Belgian A109, H-46 (BAF317)
The F-35 was the F-009 (BOLT01)

According to Aeronews, the first example has been handed over today.
Picture on their website clearly shows '10+03'.

Ah, OK. Makes sense.
Thanks for clearing that up!

12 RC-135's are visible on ADS-B at this moment.

Any particular reason for this migration?

Good question. I'd like to know as well.
Too bad I somehow cannot attach my ADS-B screenshot to my post...

Yeah, Aeronews also reports it as being the 10+03

hope this helps

This absolutely helps!
Thank you very much!

Are you willing to share that pic with me (send in Priv Message)?
In my pics, the tails of -505 and -553 are blocked by their folded wings.
Only the third in row (indeed the -540) is visible in my pic.
View on the fourth one in line (-504) is partially blocked by one of the Hawkeyes.

Thanks.

Reason why I started this topic was that I didn't have full readings on the Growlers parked on the northeast flightline.
This is what I read back then:

- EA-18G, ...... / ..-504
- EA-18G, ...... / ..-505
- EA-18G, ...... / NL-540
- EA-18G, ...... / ..-553

Perfect, thanks!
Only the -505 and the -504 were not fully visible in my pics.
At least this solves the mystery regarding the -505. Hope you can confirm the same regarding the -504.

Thanks again.

This is good info. Thanks a lot!
Much appreciated.

Once I have put all missing pieces together, I’ll try to post a full log.

Thanks again!
