The TREND's to LGSA were SP machines.

Also 4 more A10's routed LAJES/SiG/Mid East as more replacements for the FT's at Bagram. Therefore there is a chance that over the next few days Spang will see some more FT's for urgent maintainence.

Yes, but there was no Trend61 flight. Only 41 and 51 and they have been seen landing at LGSA by a dutch spotter.....

trend 41 and trend 51 landed in Aviano (LIPA) friday 21 afternoon.

We heard them at the radio; they missed Air refuelling with Quid ?1 due to bad weather and diverted to LIPA.
I made the pictures. I do not know if they are still there but quite sure of it. Now it is snowing in LIPA.

ciao gp

Hey Tonno,

There's a guy who lives (fairly) near Nevatim who would be your pal forever if you shot the serials of the other 11 Sp F-16s

Thanks for the info, Banter! Anybody who can provide their serials, stopover dates, and pictures for my Warthog News blog? I would be very grateful for any support.

Tonno,

It's not fair, you can sit at Deci and take great pix, I can sit under their home approach all day long, even being seen by bored back-seaters in the Ds, but the first farmer who comes along calls the civil police and it's bad news for me. That's why I'm only a spotter!

Hi,

Retro 91-93 and KC-10 Blue 41 should be arriving later today.

RH.
