Oostende (EBOS/OST) - 2009 MIL

[AK01]

If all stays well (is that an option?), we can expect them at Wick on Tuesday 1st of September, continuing on Wednesday through Oostende.

Jeroen

With the current speed it might indeed take 9 Months , but it must be November i guess.

Ps glad i don't have to fly them over the ocean after they returned twice to the homebase.

Next leg for both:

30-Nov-2009 TEX2/ CFB Goose Bay (Goose Bay) (CYYR / YYR) Narsarsuaq (BGBW / UAK) 10:10 UTC 13:06 UTC Scheduled

According the systems they have not departed (yet) while the plan indicates departure at 10:10 UTC (which is 11:10 CET). But if they cross the pont directly to Greenland, the next stretch could also be covered today to Iceland. Wick could be tomorrow during the day and Oostende tomorrow evening (night stop).

EDIT: Both are on delay. Flight was cancelled. Tomorrow another day....

Looks like they have made it to Greenland. No flightplan known (yet) for further flights towards Iceland and Scotland.

It's getting busy. As Pete already indicated in the SIS area there are additional T-6's underway still in the Northern parts of the US. But it's not two but three species:

HKB178
01-Dec-2009 TEX2/G Des Moines Intl (KDSM) Lester B. Pearson Intl (CYYZ) 10:15 CST 13:35 EST Scheduled

HKB181
01-Dec-2009 TEX2/R Beech Factory (KBEC) Des Moines Intl (KDSM) 08:34 CST 09:35 CST 1:01 Arrived

HKB122
01-Dec-2009 TEX2/G Des Moines Intl (KDSM) Lester B. Pearson Intl (CYYZ) 09:34 CST 13:30 EST En Route
01-Dec-2009 TEX2/R Beech Factory (KBEC) Des Moines Intl (KDSM) 08:32 CST 09:33 CST 1:01 Arrived

The other two HKB176 and HKB280 look like they're still in Greenland.

HKB181 and HKB178 are probably the same aircraft.
Today on Dec 1st it flew the first leg from Beech Factory to Des Moines Intl. as HKB181, and the second leg from Des Moines Intl. to Lester B. Pearson Intl. as HKB178

Perry

Sounds like a good explanation to me. Both have been confirmed at Toronto (unfortunately no serials as was noted with the previous batch).
