there has been some confusion over the fiscal for -0033 (06 or 07). However thanks to Ken on Mil Spotters forum, who contacted Textron Bell, and also confirmation for 21SOS it has been confirmed as 07

There were 8 Ospreys at one time in Sig yesterday, the 4 from MLD, two Thunders and two Legacys. The Legacy's were off the KEARSARGE but not sure about the Thunders though they did seem to come from the south too.

I think VAQ-138 arrived at Sigonella yesterday with their Growlers?

Can anyone confirm please?

Today i heard on Malta ATC UAF2509, a CH-47F from the UAEAF. It was flying form Sicilia to DTTG which is Gabes - Matmata in Tunesia (close to the Lybian border). It was flying overhead Lampedusa, and continued with Tunis control.
I am not 100% sure if it departed Sigonella, or one of the other mil airfields in Sicilia, but it's certainly a nice movement in my opinion.

@ Michiel,
please confirm both Canadian Auroras having 407sq badges on their tails. I both have them as 14 Wing Greenwood fairly recently.

thanks!

Good evening
Just thinking about trying to squeeze a return visit in , with hostilities near a climax.
Obviously with the info blackout in place, a off-line reply would be most welcome.
Are the Swedes / Turks & UAE assets still in situ ?.
If so any serials would be appreciated, as to any Aircraft rotation, since april.

Many thanks

Hi

I believe there has been a unit change of the Turks !.
Some of the recent Wittmund deployment jets , were ex Unified Protector assets !.
I was informed Diyabakir F-16 took over.
But wether they or any other coalition aircraft are in situ is not known !!
Any offers ?

Regards
