Chris,
Thanks for posting the log, and good work with all the F-16 units! A few bits from me:

F-16 93-0008 (markings anyone?) was in the hangar on the main ramp on Tuesday. When we left on Wednesday it had been replaced by another from the main ramp.
93-0078 should read 93-0678
88-0003 is not valid. I don't have anything like it.
I didn't log 90-0007 - confirmation anyone please?

NF-5: I don't think 3001/01 was present (this was WO). Confusion with 4001?
Add 4009, a second B with code 4
I logged 3072 with code 5, but might be mistaken

AS532UL: add 01-2524, which was outside on the ramp on Tuesday afternoon when we went to shoot the F-4s.

It might be worth noting that the Transall was an ECM variant - don't recall seeing one before.

Andy

Have a very hazy shot that shows ??-0003, or something close to that, from Wednesday afternoon, loaded with LGBs. Unfortunately the angle and the haze make it difficult to read. (From the database the options seem to be 91-0003, 92-0003, 93-0003 or 88-0033). Anyone?

Also have a hazy photo of 90-0007. It was dragged out of a HAS on Wednesday afternoon, also with a full load of LGBs. Presumably both of these were for the VIP visit.
NF-5: I don't think 3001/01 was present (this was WO). Confusion with 4001?
Concur!
Add 4009, a second B with code 4
Thanks, missed that one!

Have photos of it coded 2. It's the one that was towed by on Tuesday, and on the F-4 line that evening.

On further study (thanks Andy!), '88-0003' is 90-0007 from a bad angle, so delete all reference to it!

Rod Burden notes that the Scramble Orbat pages record that 143 Filo became 153 Filo at Merzifon after the failed coup but then became 193 Filo at Balikesir.
So 143 Filo should read 193 Filo.

With regard to the Pakistan JF-17s, they were indeed from 28(MR)sq.
Can anyone share the c/ns of 13-144 and 13-145 these are stamped all over the planes in format: FC101xx
(I know what they should be, just want them confirmed ;-))
best regards,
Erwin
