Hello,

Same happened in Lajes... Those guys arrived by night only for refueling and then straight to Rota

I found on a blog their serials: 09-0042, 11-0053 and 11-0054.

C130 were:
65-0993 MC130P RCH1010
69-5820 MC130P RCH1011
96-8153 EC130J RCH1024

RCH1024 stayed on Lajes and only departed on the next night to Rota.

Regards

And what about the other 7 that followed behind (rugby flight)? Together with 2 C-130s....

Cheers,
