Noted on a hot Moron Tuesday 16th of May:

5380/BH KC-130J
071/BH KC-130J
5738/BH KC-130J
070?/BH KC-130J (not 100% sure)
WK-04 F/A-18
WK-11 F/A-18
WK-14? F/A-18
?? F/A-18
WK-00 F/A-18 Tiger c/s

Loods like the complete second cell still present.
One Osprey departed as I entered the dirt road, 5 more were present on-ramp but unreadable due to heathaze so any confirmation on the above mentioned 6 buno's world be great!
Any one for the 2 stored P-3's?

No activity with the Eufi's so decided not to make a fuss about those as the misses tagged along, few under the sheds though.

Regards,

Joost

We have the following codes from someone at Moron that day of these a/c. Does somebody know the last 2 ?

164558 YM-50
163874 YM-56 --> i.s.o. YM-52
165597 YM-51
165306 YM-52
165383 YM-53
164121 YM-55

EDIT I: this link ( http://forum.scramble.nl/viewtopic.php?f=45&t=134027 ) gives the YM-55 for 164121;
EDIT II: Thx Eddy for the last one

Can someone confirm this is the correct tie-up ?
Thanks in advance
Cheers,

Stefan J.
