...in which case the Hellenic AF should really update its website (both in the Greek as in the English version)

But you are right; it is 335M, not 335MB or 335MV. I checked my own collection of HAF patches when I got back from work and the current 335 patch indeed shows "335M" (actually, the 336 one also shows just the "M" even though they still operate the A-7, but that's another story). Thanks for clearing this up. Or, as they say over there, efcharisto !

Yes, you're right about 336...go figure

Parakalo ! (you're welcome)

Can anybody confirm the departure of the Czech Hinds from Cambrai today and at what time?

Today 20MAY at 13.15lt 2 Hinds buzzed my house at pretty low level, coming from the west and heading east.
My location is about 60km north-east of Frankfurt, so basically "right in between Cambrai and the Czech Republic"

Unfortunately I was standing directly underneath them, facing the sun, so I did not identify any special colours.

Thanks,
Gerard

I can confirm they departed, but I don't know what time excactly they departed.

Both Hinds made a Fuel Stop at Büchel at approx. 1100lt.!!

The Gendarmerie claimed the last move was the Czech Casa,a dubious claim at the time,but it seemed a good idea to heed their hint to go.

[Padidiver]

Polish F-16C 4051, departed
Polish F-16D 4080, departed
France Alphajet E103 / 118 - UA, arrival and departure

[Wijgert IJlst]

Any clue on the ID of the Portugese C-130H-30 which had arrived Thursday 19th May at the end of the afternoon?

Did I overlooked something?

Pieter

Actually, you did.. the overview was compiled by author "wamovements". In the "regular" thread (Spotting rest of Europe/Cambrai 2011) he remarked that he would not be able to update the overview for a few weeks as he was away on holidays. So, he advised us that all the logs posted in this thread and in the other one would be used to complete the overview after his return... and as only the starter of the thread (or a mod) can change the content of the overview, I guess we have to wait a bit until Dennis returns and he's had a chance to process everything that was posted after he left

[Jappie]

Hi Wijgert,

16801 is the C-130H-30 you asked for.
