I missed at least 5 others that either came in straight overhead, or I saw them from farther off on the way to the beach.

Oh, and 1 more

Cool. They came through NAS Fort Worth JRB on the way there I guess. They left JRB on Thursday to Albuquerque. A total of 19 came through.

Tally.

Write off, eh? I went and rechecked my pix-- yep, 255/BUNO 163655. I'll be posting pictures once I know they've gone home.

The first batch of numbers was from their arrival Thursday, but I knew then I'd missed some of the jets. Been out the last 2 days and I have more numbers, but I still don't know if I have them all. They were flying 0800-1800 Sat and Sun, and started at 0800 this morning.

These are all new numbers:

TW1/ VT-7 NAS Meridian

105 -- came in right on top of me, no BUNO as of yet

Nice report. I do like T-45s. A couple of queries though please.
I think B215 is 163615?
Can you check the BuNo for B202? 163202 was a TAV-8B before it was written off.
Regards
Mark
