All,

The 6 AV-8s that should have arrived yesterday were possibly the following:

165420
165587
165566
165570
165584

Perhaps somebody can confirm that they are correct?

Regards

Mark

Does anybody know which two V-22s transited through Lajes this week as Raven81 and 82? They were accompanied by a C-130 callsign Gilda45.

I saw tuesday a pic on azoresairphotos but the pic is removed, can't remember the serial anymore but it was a pic with a V-22 on it and it was a Airforce example.

Reason about removing pics about those rare birds is still unknown, some of my contactpersons are also very quiet about it......

to be continued i quess !

Any trace of a second USAF Pilatus U-28A (PC-12/45) around October 11 2008? (or maybe more?) I found a photo at URL:
