Some June additions from a "shopping for essentials" trip:

106Sqn F-15C 583 (FMS not noted), 812 (80-0124) plus "B" 122 (rear end of 73-0104 thus marked, front end from a/c 110/73-0110)
133Sqn F-15A 669 (not noted), 681 (nn), 695 (76-1521), 696 (76-1522), F-15C 802 (80-0122), F-15B 113 (73-0113), 408 (76-1525) & the "new" F-15D 982. This does not yet have IAF roundels nor standard size/colour serial presentation, and no name, and carries "9008" on the NWD

9008 = former 53TFW Bitburg 79-0008?

Either side of yet another visit to the supermarket each fighter squadron put seven a/c up, only additional examples today were F-15A 663/76-1508 from 133 and F-15C 840/80-0129 from 106. With the Flight Test Centre (Manat) F-16I 471, loaned from 119 sqn, was active. It is suggested that when the best eight of the former Oregon (& BT, thanks Ben) F-15Ds are operational the Eagles will be gathered into 133 Sqn and 106 will disband, their place being taken by the third F-35A (F-35I "Adir" locally) squadron.

Hi Starman,
thanks a lot for your very interesting logs!
Is which colors is 471 flying? MANAT or 119 Sq?
