Scramble Messageboard

Talking about the tankers, Prestwick has based for Air Defender 62-3549 IA ANG 174ARS, 63-8043 AK ANG 168ARS and 61-0309 WI ANG 126ARS.

Welcome, Trabanti, AAR was done by KC46,s with an Air Defender missioncode. So I think Air Defender but time will tell.

The USS Ford is heading south, perhaps a stop on the way to Spain?

C2s routing Oslo Chateauroux.

Identified as F16's, could be these i think: F-16C 92-3915, F-16D 90-0843, 90-0846 179th FS Duluth, MN ANG.
Or are there any SP F16's in Conus?

Cube11 flight of three (maybe only 2 will arrive with one airspare) just departed Portsmouth for Spangdahlem.
not sure what type of aircraft, F35's looks most likely, but they don't sound like F35's. They are also on a different Coronet number then the VT F35's, CE087E this time.
grt Pieter,

Two Air Defender KC46's are planned for later this afternoon.
Departure Portsmouth should be shortly. Planned are 17-46034 and 16-46013.
Callsigns Stark98 +99.

Missing from the, AFAIK, latest participants list, are : Brize Norton, UK KC-135R (?x) ANG GSU Support only Hohn,DE 4 x RAF Typhoon Prestwick, UK C-17A (2x) ANG (there have been plenty of C17's related to Air Defender, but they all have gone home again) Wunstorf, DE C2 JASDF (is this one cancelled?)...

The three planned SpanishAF EF2000's are over France heading for Neuburg as AME1409.

That's exactly who it was discussed on Barnes ops freq on Saturday.

Cube51 VT F35's departed Burlington on a direct flight to Spangdahlem this morning around 11.00z.
Think it was 5 with one airspare returning, but not sure about that.
Eta somewhere between 19.00 /20.00 local????
