Haven't been at Ramstein in more then two decades, but want to give it a try for the expected NASA DC8
I found out four Afghan C-27's are stored in the Southern shelter area.
Can they be seen from one of the high vantage points like the Bismarck Turm, Burg Nanstein or Am Herrengärtchen?
(I've never been before at one of these three).
thanks in advance,

Remco, if you
walk (not allowed to drive) along the fence over the perimeter road, you can reach the parking area where the 4 G.222's are parked. It's at the end of the southern taxi-track, and the shelter area where the Learjets operate out of. G.222's are good visable during the winter months from this location: 49.423001, 7.577064.
Viewing the base and reading of serials can be done best from Am Herrengärtchen/Auf Der Pick, in the "Am Melkerei" part of Landstuhl. Although not 100% of the aircraft can be seen, you will get most of them from this official viewing area/vantage point.
