Madrid/Torrejon (LETO/TOJ) 2023 MIL

Post by Crowflight »

Noted visitor on 02March was an Israeli C-130J-30, unfortunately too much heat haze to read it off. Can anyone help to identify it?
Seen plotting on ADS-B on 03Mar around midday inbound from the west was 668, & seen plotting again outbound eastbound 04Mar late evening, so this was a separate one.

Anyone for ID of the one present on 02nd?

On the second and third of March IAF019 was logged as 545, a C-130H Karnaf. Should be in desert camo. So maybe that’s your bird?
The second of March it arrived from the US, the third it left to Israel

Edit: disregard, you’re looking for a J. There wasn’t any other logged than the 668 you mentioned…

It seems this is the line-up for the parade:
18 formations, we will be able to see: EF-18, EF-2000 Eurofighter fighters, AV-8B, Pilatus PC-21, A400M, Airbus A330, Airbus A310, Falcon 900, Cessna Citation V, CN-235, CN-235-300 and a CN- 235-MP, CL-415 and C-212 aircraft.

I am looking for other spotters who wish to photograph aircraft returning from the parade at Torrejon. Please send me an email at tommaso.dalmaso@gmail.com if interested :)
