Saturday, August 23rd:

In a way to entertain myself during my lonely ride home, I drove past the well-lighted AMC-ramp at 23.45 (!?) and identified C-5 70028. There was also a KC-10 on the ramp,which remains unknown.

Kind regards,

Kees

Hi Polleke,

SO FAR, it seems that that will be the case (both tornados and AMX), but I find it strange.

But indeed 6-8x AMX are expected this friday, and also heard already that 2 will change next week!

Could be a good periode for Spang.

Don't shoot the messanger if they don't show up :wink:
Oscar

Ps: Deployment AMX is combination of 32nd and 51st St a/c.

What will be the purpose of this deployment? Could we expect them to fly every working day or will there be non-flying days as with TLP?
Will the C-27 participate too or is that one "just" for support ?
