RF Su-34 crash in Yeysk (everything about it)

This link is a video realized by former military pilots.
It only highlights how the 17th Su-34 was lost in 7 months on October 17th and why it is the 4th Russian a/c lost in an accident during the past month.
Maintenance and training are missing...

ETAD recent activities

Hi all,
Did anybody went to ETAD this week ?
How is the activity ? At what time do the first a/c take-off ?
Is there still only 4 Growlers, inspite of 6 ?
Is the high vizz aircraft still there ?
Monday seems to be sunny. I guess Mondays are good days ?...
Thanks in advance for any help :worship:

Thanks !
Did you notice some F-35s coming back from night missions early in the morning ?...

Re: Help kindly needed on SP ;-) thanks

In general you might expect that in a conflict situation, surveillance and guard duties continue. It's a round the clock operation. Guarantees are never given in the pursuit of militairy aviation spotting, especially with operaional information. This I know, I was military pilot ;-) My question is,...

Help kindly needed on SP ;-) thanks

Easter is a special moment in the year. I saw on the logs that last Sunday , April 10th, 8 F-35 and 2 EA-18G flew, which is pretty rare on a Sunday (and of course KC-135). It is probably due to flight duties over Poland. Does anybody have clues about next Sunday, 17th (Easter) and Monday, 18th ? Tha...

As that is operational info, which is hardly ever available for Ramstein in the first place, I wouldn't count on it. Especially not in these times.

Don't know about Monday mornings unfortunately.
Thanks anyway ;-)

Re: RAMSTEIN : Kind help needed

On the Su 13 March they did not have quiet hours and also no rush hour. Thank you. But March 13rd was 10 days ago now, half of the war. Russians are short of ammunition and NATO has increased their deliveries. Did anybody was in RS on 19th or 20th ? Thanks. Ps : and always the same question about e...

RAMSTEIN : Kind help needed

Hi all, :help: Checking the different logs posted on Scramble and despite the fact that the activity is high with the war in Ukraine, it seems that on Sundays , most of the aircrafts are on the ramp. It means almost no flights. Can anyone confirm that point? :roll: It seems that it is not the same o...
