C-146A 11-3104 was last noted departing Bangkok Don Muang on the 15th October calling Magma 02.

[CJ]

Ref Jeroen's list, I would have thought that Sierra Nevada is / was 'just' the conversion company and NOT the operator other than for test flight after conversion.

We had 5 of them this year, 1 still present. They come in/leave as REACH104? and fly Missions as MAGMA 30/40.

[TF-104G]

and two more c/n 3060 & 3085 both ex Cirrus Airlines

sorry, 3060 is ex Air Service Liege

[wamovements]

Are you sure about 3060? I do no think this one is owned by Cirrus
Cirrus however has the following stored:
3017
3041
3050
and the 3085

regards
Dennis

[TF-104G]

you´re right
c/n 3060 ex Air Service Liege
c/n 3085 ex Cirrus
both for US Air Force

[skippyscage]

here's the latest one over the numbers at Centennial on delivery

[frank kramer]

c/n 3060 ex Air Service Liege, for US Air Force

Aha, the Dutch connection...
c/n 3060 is (soon to be ex-) OO-ELI (ASL) and prior to that it was PH-SOX (Solidair)

[Le Addeur noir]

Both 11-3030 and 11-3104 were to be seen at Phnom-Penh Pochentong and Yangon Mingaladon in support of the recent visit of President Obama to South East Asia.

It's not known where these birds live in Asia,but the Philippines(with the Asian based U-28As) seems likely.

R&R visits to Bangkok Don Muang by these airplanes at weekends is not infrequent.

11-3031 has been in Asia since at least June 2012 nad the other one is believed to arrived in Asia in the second half of September.

[skippyscage]

another delivery today to KAPA

N360EF / 23060
