I can only confirm 05-4106 (TY) which belonged to a flight of 2 aircraft that diverted to Souda along with their tanker (GOLD92) due to an emergency.

Arrived at Souda on Sept. 30th, after sunset, so spotting was not possible. Callsign for the F-22 should be TABOR (TABOR14 was one of them). The tanker which had the emergency was 64-14840 (Ohio ANG), which flew next day alone to Europe (ETAD?).

Yes,
On 15 September late afternoon we identified YM-52, YM-53, YM-55 and YM-56.
One day earlier we identified YM-50 and YM-51 arriving at Rota.

Thank you very much again, Hans.
Seems that we did a similar tour!
So AV-8B's at Moron:
164558 YM-50
165597 YM-51
165306 YM-52
165383 YM-53
164121 YM-55
163874 YM-56
while the last 4 aircraft were not actually read off but assumed from their codes?
