Currently French TBM700 CTM1306 inbound. Olive31, a gorgeous WC-135 out of Mildenhall, unfortunately seems to pass Crete on its way to the Middle East.

EP-3E 156517 is also operating from here according to ADS-B, flying under c/s DF21 along the Romanian coast. Not Souda-related, but a Turkish Wedgetail is orbiting in the same area.

You can not always trust ads-b, because 156517 was also noted over the US west coast on 13 July. Today ads-b reports EP-3E 157318 near the Black Sea. However this frame is stored at AMARG.

According to ads-b EP-3E 156517 VV PR517 left Whidbey on its way to Europe, but it returned probably with a problem.

It seemed it was a quick fix. Eastbound again over Minnesota as this time.
