Thanks Ben for the information. Came a C-130 (G-273).

That same day also arrived a VC-10 (ZD241) and a C-17 Hungary Air Force (01).

Fantastic day: http://www.planepictures.net/netshow.php?id=1205657

Hi.

The Spanish are making test flights. No idea of TuAF, USAF and Chilean. These aircrafts landed in Gran Canaria?

Today arrived and departed 2 E145 BAF, CN235 CTM and C160 GAF. Also came a C130 RRR.

I grateful the information about this airport.


Best regards from Gran Canaria.

Hi,

Yes, i saw them on GC yesterday, i can send you some long distance pictures.

Are you resident in GC ? Maybe you can ask some other enthousiast ?

Nice airport btw, always something special (i noticed i missed the Brazilian P3 the day after i arrived...) ! And nice mountains to cycle through.. And sometimes, nice storms !

best regards,

C.

Hi C.,

The following quote is from Ben Gurion. So a good candidate.



B737-300 922 Fuerza Area de Chile.
