Spangdahlem (ETAD/SPM) - 2008

Hi Oscar,

The 3 returning A-10's are not 81FS a/c but from 118 FS CT ANG, is that right? So I assume they are underway for their deployment in Iraq/Afghanistan?

Regards,

Maurits

As far as I know these 3 A-10s are new ones for the 81st FS.

960, 965 & 646 are all former Spangdahlem aircraft that served with the 510th FS back in 1993.

The three A-10s (81-0960, 81-0965 and 82-0646) are really former 118th FS / 103rd FW jets. With the BRAC 2005 process, the "Flying Yankees" lost their "Hogs" and got C-21s. According to the latest "Yankee Courier", the 103rd FW will become the 103rd AW on April 1, 2008 commemorated by an official re-designation ceremony on April 5, 2008. BTW: 81-0965 (together with 81-0969) flew the 103rd FW´s last operational A-10 sortie on December 28, 2007. See: http://www.103rdfighterwing.com/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

06/3

Ghost2 Tornado GAF arrived from Buchel around 15:44LT.

07/3

RFR7060 Tornado RAF departed this morning (ATD 09:29LT) heading for RAF Lossiemouth, where it arrived at 10:56LT. This afternoon it arrived at 15:45LT at Spangdahlem. It's unclear to me if it''s the same one?

Further more two GAF Tornado's departed around 10:00LT to Norvenich. Callsigns:

Ghost ATA ETNN 11:41LT
Eifel ATA ETNN 11:47LT

91-0358 F-16CJ 22nd FS
91-0366 F-16CJ 23rd FS

Were does these come from!

Anyone know how many new F-16s are delivered and how much will be delivered?

I have also 91-0349, 91-0361 and 91-0388 (or is this a mix-up with above 366?) as delivered to the 52 FW. Are there more serials known?

Did 52FW receive these F-16s as 'extra' or are these here to replace older examples (and some will return to ConUS)?

Heard from a friend that some more Vipers are expected in the near future and that some were delivered last week (above two examples?).

Concerning the A-10; when will the 52FW receive the A-10C and will this mean they should receive a 'new' fleet (in the meantime)?

You will find some shots taken yesterday by USAFE here

Thanx Crizz. The first shot shows 360 which is also a new Viper! That's nr 6 then.

Hi,

Please start reading the messages and you will find most answers already. Both 22nd and 23rd FS have now 4 new, ex CC 522nd FS F-16s (so 8 in total). Last tuesday, another 2 were expected, but didn't show up.

Besides, 81st FS received 3 new A-10s this year.

Regards,
Oscar

With all due respect, but reading back the messages I couldn’t find any answer to my questions.

22nd and 23rd FS have now 4 new, ex CC 522nd FS F-16s (so 8 in total). Last tuesday, another 2 were expected, but didn't show up.

Thanks for clearing this up. I believe the two missing serials are not known?

Even the total of 8 are not known yet....
