Is it mil or not??

Post by Austria »

Last week a boeing 737 was at Salzburg airport (LOWS) with reg.no. A6-HEH.
I thought this was a civil plane, but wenn I looked it up at the scramble database I could find it in the mil section.
Therefore my question; Is this a mil plane or a civil one.

I placed a link of a photo (not made by myself)

Hope you can help me with this question, with regards, Brian

Government if you ask me. But, this is another great example of the question military spotters have quite often. And there are always multiple answers, but I can only give you one good advise: Go spot mil and civ (and gov) so it doesn't matter anymore :)

So you're writing down homebuilds, gliders and hot air balloons as well? There will always be dilemma's if you ask me.
