Stockholm - Arlanda (ESSA/ARN) - MIL 2011

Post by Shirley »

Hi all,

Landed this morning (08/03/2011) at Arlanda and I think I saw one of "our" Tweety birds (AB-412) in front of one of the hangars (59°39'35.18"N - 17°58'23.66"E). A bit vague, I know, but it was still early (got out of bed at 4), so my eyes were still sleepy when we landed.

Can anyone confirm this?

Expected this coming saturday (15OCT2011) is an Armée de l'Air C-135FR, remaining overnight, so departing sunday 16OCT.
If I get the exact times, I will post them here.

Okay, first of all I made a mistake with the date!
The C-135FR will arrive Friday 14OCT and stays overnight!

Here are the times for ARN:
ARR 14OCT at 09.50Z
DEP 15OCT at 09.00Z to Lisbon.

Can anyone confirm that the C-135FR arrived in Stockholm today (and which one for that matter). Not that I can see it there, but Lisbon is in reach for me :wink:
And thanks to Gerard for the heads up.

Erwin,
Albert's SBS site says 471 was over Sweden around 10.00 UTC this morning, so i guess it landed, and usually the FAF C135FR are correct on SBS.
