On the way go home I saw some military aircraft:
G-550 TC-CBK vip flt. (was between another planes at the gates)
C-160D 69-026 (landed behind us and stayed at the "WFU" ramp)

Hi,

If the "wfu ramp" is the one not far from the museum, I think that the Air Force is still using the area at least occasionally. While I haven't seen anything there during a couple of visits, after they took down all the complete shelter area, one time I saw a couple of military planes on the old military ramp, when passing the big roundabout outside of the mil gate. Possibly they also still use a small hangar over there.

Regards
Martin
