Thank you very much, Mr.Herkybird. On which date did you read the EP-3E, please? Thanks.

Were you also able to confirm the identities of either the ATL2 or the HSC-28 MH-60S coded BR-37 that were at/operating from Chania at this time please? Thanks!

Cheers, David

Already in October 2020 EP-3E 156528 was seen on ads-b as 159893. The real 159893 was photographed at Waco while in maintenance on 18 May 2022. 156528 arrived at Souda on 26 June 2022 as PR528 via Bangor and Rota. It has since been seen on ads-b as 159893 very regularly. Yesterday, 16 November, I saw 159893 on ads-b as VV PR893 flying from Pax River to Whidbey Island. If 156528 is still at Souda then PR893 was the real 159893. To make things complicated both are using the same HEX code AE1D95

This Friday morning EP-3E '159893' is visible on ads-b operating out of Souda as DF21. This should be 156528 again.
