A recent arrival noted outside on 6th Oct was EC-345/"U4" the next aircraft for the UAE
Still on the ramp was Singa 762 (actually leased back to Airbus for trials) & an unidentified RAAF in "100 years" marks

Indeed, that's the 8th one, can you post your picture of 7196?

MM81822 & F-35B of course :oops: Our initial thought on the 2nd a/c from the line of 16 was (MM71)26 which was not between 7114 & 7167 (sorry, can't be bothered to put brackets round all the MM71s) at the March event. However, 7196 was between 55049 & 7191 in March. I don't doubt your ph...

Hi guys, Noted at Aviano on 7th September were the three Cougars, CH-47s flying D-472 plus, from ADSB, D-485 & D-603. At 15.51Z two Apaches landed but I was on the wrong side of the runway, maybe the pilots read these pages? (Another one came in maybe 1/2 hour before with a Chinook, but I was a ...

Some additions/corrections to the above report, which I see has been edited whilst I was typing this: UH-90A E.I.248 (MM81565) was operating from the eastern dispersal, callsign IEI1557 51-20 MM7320 & 51-95 MM7295 were the morning Typhoons 51-33 MM(71)62 was the morning AMX 51-39 MM7339 (used hi...

The Russian "AF1"? If "AF1" is the designation of the aircraft carrying the head of state, then President Putin (whatever else one may think of him) trumps most of his oppos by appearing (allegedly) in a Tu-160 over Moscow in May 2015. Biden in a B-1, Macron in a Mirage, Rishi i...

Re 16+01 (or 1601 for pedants); they must've given it some welly as it passed W/b OTT TLV @ 14.00 on the 18th heading back to erm, Germany

Well, they delivered three today, 958, 959 & 960, AS37-39 arrived at Nevatim, Israel, just after 6pm.

I am informed that as of "last week" neither of the F-104s (@ N41.05177, E14.06563) were still there.
This ties in with the "recent" return of MM6705 to Caprodise, and also the MM6937 to Cancello e Arnone.
Can anyone confirm (50% or greater) the veracity of this?

"According to FR24, Indian Government B773 K-7066 should arrive at Orly tomorrow lunchtime, bringing Modi for the celebrations."
The beastie is visible from the Musee du Delta, or from the Coeur d'Orly Tram stop

Third Indian C-17 on same heading this fine Friday morning

No less than three trips to Italy in the past 12 months, with perhaps still more open days and exercises to come, but before it becomes unwieldy, here are some images pertinent to my particular area of interest. Serials come from a variety of sources, if anyone can offer a better alternative, feel f...
