I think the callsign was meant SVF322 (SweedForce 322), but as it was pronounced "Sweedfor322", tower misunderstood it for "Sweed 4322".
Anyone access to the flightplan?
Flightplan says "SVF332"
"GIPS"

Thanks Bas!!
Are you sure about that Q-13? Somebody at the fence told me it was Q-14 - unfortunately the only Apache I could not identify on my photos, while I thought Q-14 was also logged on adsb? But I am not sure.
I can confirm all other based helicopters are correct (photo proof).

Can someone confirm the apache with the L-code is the q-13 or q-14?

Obviously nobody can, is it might be wrong info. Amazingly, yesterday 31 May, an Apache coded L was read off be me and a few other spotters, while adsb said it was Q-09. So there are either more than one Apache coded L or Q-13 AND Q-14 are totally wrong!

In my -[b]older[/b][u][/u]- notes I have Q-13 (Afghanistan 2008 ev.), Q-21 and Q-29 (at least in 2015) coded L.
Q-14 had code X.
I think it could not have been the q-09. I have photographed several Apaches this week, none of which corresponds to the L coded apache paint on the tail.
The ones i readoff this week : Q-01 Q-04 Q-05 Q-09 Q-18 Q-24
is there a list of what has flown this day?
==========================
Canon EOS 20D + Canon BG-E2
Canon EF-S 18-55/3.5-5.6
Canon EF 28-105/3.5-4.5 II USM
Canon EF 100-400/4.5-5.6 L IS ultrasonic
There are currently (at least) 2 Apaches flying with the code L underneath the fuselage: Q-13 and Q-29. Q-13 is almost impossible to read off on the tail, whereas Q-29 has a much better visible serial. There is also a subtle difference in the L: the one on Q-13 is less wide than the L on Q-29.
The L-coded Apache flying on May 22 was the Q-13, with the narrow L. It was recognisable on that day for another reason, as it carried 2 external fuel tanks, unlike the other Apaches seen on May 22. It flew both in the morning and afternoon.
I positively identified all 5 Apaches in Eric's log from my photos of May 22, by the way.
One addition: the Q-24 (also) flew in the afternoon.
