Reach 7122: currently working with ATCC Dutch Mil on 128.3500 MHz, but missed his altitude and direction.....

Shadow 23: with ATCC Dutch Mil on 128.3500 MHz.

"We would like to stay on FL320, because of a certain track we have to follow".

According to my callsign lists, this should be a MC-130 from 67th SOS, Mildenhall.

"We would like to stay on FL320, because of a certain track we have to follow".

According to my callsign lists, this should be a MC-130 from 67th SOS, Mildenhall.

But at FL320 It would indicate it is not a C130....

Shadow is also used bu USN E-6..

[Thijs]

according a sbs log it should be an E-6 -406.

KLM 1200: PAN PAN call due to a bird strike. It seems that some seagulls stroke the plane in the nose area. They are returning to Schiphol Airport Amsterdam (EHAM). Comms with ATCC Amsterdam on 120.8750 MHz (Discrete Emergency Frequency).

I don't know what type of plane it is yet.

13.48 LT: they also have some problems with fuel indication.

13.50 LT: cleared for approach on runway 36R.

Quid 66: KC-135 from 351st ARS Mildenhall, working in the JOJO track. Comms on 371.5000 MHz (UACC Lippe, AAR Control).

Most likely PH-BXD 737-8K2

Yep, Boeing 737-800. I see him now, almost landed. http://casper.frontier.nl/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

I also picked it up on the scanner at EHRD.
According to CFMU it's indeed PH-BXD. They also had some problems with the fuel balance (several strange indications) and weren't sure the nosegear was operating normally due to the birdstrike, refering to the Barcelona accident.
