Guess this was no TuAF as they don't participate at all; more likely is the Algerian / USAF?
Adios, Hurricane
This must be the Algerian C-130. mispole....

Has anyone noted the Merlin which was standing all saturday on the tarmac on the north side, close to the NATO B707. This one didn't fly that day.

Well, ZH842 was also inside a hangar and was only pulled out of it after 18:30h, so that will leave ZH839/83 on the platform (since I also noticed no code on the tail).

well, there was one standing there all day, and it was not the 842, 861 or 834. So must be 839 or 847. So anyone who could confirm which passive Merlin was on the tarmac?

I think the visible Merlin from the static side was the 847. This one did not fly the whole day, but was towed inside a hangar around 15.30. On 16.30 I visited the other side of the base (ON base) and there were only TWO Merlins outside 834 and 861.
