= 1730. MiG-21 = 7801Mr AMARC wrote:Dear Mark and David,
Thank you for your report. I have 1 or 2 questions please.
As I had solid reasons for being home Sunday 27th, I still squeezed Sliac and Radom in one trip, doing Sliac from outside Friday afternoon, which went rather well. No MiGs in the hangar of course …
My notes for the Austrian Eurofighters are different as I read them as 7L-WC and 7L-WD on the flightline, and I would say 7L-WC is 100% sure, 7L-WD is 90% +.
I couldn't see either serial but read AS003 & GS024 from the fins
As you also seem to have some question marks I want to add my log as well, only what I read from outside, with question marks when not being sure, but no assumptions). The Polish CN.295 likely wasn’t there yet, difficult not to see that, while the Hungarian JAS.39D may have been hiding behind some stuff standing around. Just being curious: Where was it please?
Polish C295 was nose towards a hangar, left of the Egyptian civil B737. Hungarian JAS39 was nose towards your viewpoint, right end of public area, in front of a double hangar that had MiG 29 3709 in it. Maybe it was obscured by clutter.
And about the Croatian PC.9s:
Mark you gave 5 serials, and David you added another 2.
Friday from approx. 5 to 7 p.m. there was a line of 6, seen from different angles South of the base, and I would exclude it was 7 then. Beginner’s mistake after 30 years in biz: I didn’t return here and check them after heat haze was gone, so I have an open question: Was 1 in static, arriving later or moved around to join the other 6, please?
My notebook says 054, 064, 055, 052, 069, 057. I read them from behind, so perhaps one is incorrect because last digit partially obscured by tailplane? 052 is stored according to Scamble db. I guess we need a photo!
