Re: Valdosta RAP Mil
Great that c/ns have been checked. The taped serial for the last two only had numbers?foc1 wrote:13-2005 c/n 31400205 YA-1405 taped over

Re: Valdosta RAP Mil
I'm not sure where they are headed the one in the static at Moody fit into the pattern
17-2031 c/n 31400244 (1)944 taped over. I thought it was just 944 at the time and I can't tell from my pic that there was a 1 in front of it. I heard at the show that there are 10 currently based there. I don't think the Nigerian ones are going there before delivery.

In the meantime I have received more info. Afghanistan ordered an additional six A-29Bs in US FY2017.
The first of these were delivered to Moody AFB in April 2018. From the six additional A-29Bs, two (17-2027 and 17-2028) were delivered to Kabul (Afghanistan) in June 2019.
The ones for which I know they are still flying with 81st FS at Moody AFB are:
13-2001, 13-2002, 13-2003, 13-2005, 13-2011,
13-2016, 13-2019, 13-2020, 17-2030, 17-2032
Makes up ten aircraft.
This means that four Tucanos of the additional order must have been delivered to Kabul. The two mentioned above and 17-2029 and 17-2031 for which I do not have any sighting reported so far.

Sadly I only saw that one in the static, none in the shelters like two years ago. I'll post a show log in the next day or so
