Mode S / SBS and radio logs, airfield specific, are allowed, but always state your source, mode S / SBS or air traffic conversations. These logs can be placed in the "day topic" so a separate Mode S / SBS radio log is not necessary

You need a stair (3 step) for it, and it all depends how high or low they stay. I did it when they A-10s were there and they stayed relatively ok. Locals mostly were a bit higher.
If it's 23 go to the famous chappel for t/o pictures....

C-130H 94-6707 130th AW Charlie West (West Virginia Air National Guard) - I think it operates from Spangdahlem during Swift Response 15 in Grafenwöhr.
