LOG: USA tour Day 4 (MIL)

[K2G]

Day 4 of our USA trip. A Sunday with more then 260 military aircraft.

Savannah IAP, Ga May 17

We started here around 06.30 in the morning. 23 F-15's were on the ramp and 3 F-16's.
We failed to read one OT F-15C. From other reports later that day, it seemed they changed
some aircraft, with ones in hangars.
