Hi Scramble members,

So today (16th) it was my b-day. And what more greater is it to celebrate it on one of my fav. airbases.
02:00AM I left my hometown for ETAD Spangdahlem, I wanted to be there as early as possible as I knew the roads to the Airbase would be busy with soldiers entering the airbase.
At 07:00 I was at the chapel and I heard to 07:00 wake up call. (Marine theme)

It was a very cold morning and after two hours no airbone airplane I decided to go home.
But you know.. I found inspiration on Scramble and I decided to stay.

And it payed off... an incredible busy day at ETAD and a lovely b-day surprise with so many various of airplanes. (I have tried to do my best with the plane numbers but pls help me out if I forgot any).

- C5 Super Galaxy: Dover 5003

- C17 Charlston : XXXX
- C17 McCord: 88203

- Learjet35: USAF 40087

- Eurofighter Typhoon: 30-22
