The AC F16s went home Friday 23rd. Arriving for support were:
65-0984 C130H "PR" 198AS PR ANG
92-1538 yl C130H 187AS WY ANG "Teton 38"
02-1463 gr C130J 115AS CA ANG "Ocean 96"

Other visitors were:
168326/EH-04, 168653/EH-16 MV22B VMM-264 "Leroy 11/12"
2317 HC144A touch and gos

Also a T6B call sign SH-252 which showed on SBS as 166256. Unfortunately I didn't get over to see it before it left so not sure if it really was 166256 or was actually 166252 to tie up to the call sign?
