5 French, 5 Polish, 4 HAF, RJAF 685 was noted 06/11, 678 on 13/11 with the other three so probably all 5 weren't there.
7 AVs - maybe 8, 5 Tonkas & 6 Tiffs.
115 sqn have a 367 but there is no 372
IAF C-130J 665 was at Ovda on 13/11
The 133 sqn commander said 14 a/c (incl the two "borrowed" 560 & 840) so 681 might have been a visitor.

Jurgen, photoproof!!

681 also flew in the evening of 8/11. Maybe this was the one that arrived the same morning around 0800?
