D model, not an E, serial 83-0050 Regards Mark Who know the identity of this F-15? I photographed this one on September 1th in the early morning. It is a F-15E in grey colours so I thirst thought it is a F-15EX but the serial doesn't fit. To me it ends as 060 but 050 could also be possible. Hope som...

Nice list. Did you read off the '2' from 25989? Thanks Mark LOG 24 June 2024 Nice airbase with some exotic aircraft at LMTAS, if you are lucky. In my case two Kiwi C-130Js. Also lucky because initially I did not notice the second Kiwi, which was parked in the shed, until I took a leak before leaving...

Thanks Gips. All quiet today by the looks of it?
