This is a log from the wednesday 04-04. The units are taken from the Scramble DB because no aircraft wears a unitbadge and I could not find a good orbat from Marocco.

[The DJ]

Patrick's log for April 4th shows Gazelle CR on the flightline. Tony's log for April 7th shows Gazelle CL and no mention of CR, were these two swapped or is one a mispole?

Anyone able to confirm?

[SG Woensdrecht]

DJ,

I noted CL myself.

[DennisV]

Maybe this helps a bit. Although I do not write numbers I just checked the photos of the departure and found:

Gazelles photographed on departure Sunday were:
1972/CV
1955/CR
1985/CX
1909/CG
1894/CC
1901/CE

I have no photo of a Gazelle CL. It could have left before we arrived on Sunday of course but the ramp was empty when we left. Also no photo of a Gazelle CL in the whole week before.

Hope this helps,
Dennis

[DennisV]

Maybe also of interest, one of the CM.170 on the flightline, one of the first in line, had the number 54 below the tail.

[CJ]

The ex-RDAF Gulfstream on Tony's list was seen arriving on April 3rd as N163PA, c/n 249

[The DJ]

Thanks for the help guys. CR was apperently also read off on Friday, so i guess CL might be a mispole, unless someone can come up with photoproof. Pieter anyone of your group?

[SG Woensdrecht]

DJ,

I noted CL myself.

I think a mispoled this code.

Dennis. Can you show me and The DJ the pictures of the 6 Gazelles that departed on Sunday?
