The 2nd Qatar C-17 left Long Beach yesterday for Charlston. Let's hope the next stop will be Ramstein.

As for some stupid reason " :wink: " are not appricated, I'll tell without.....

Go there early tomorrow morning (if he goes to RS, which is still not 100% sure). He landed Charleston around 01.00z this morning and will probably leave Charleston same time tonight.

I would have understood! And I think you explanation sounds very plausible. So I'll give it a try.

Thanks Oz!

SBS Station in St Johns /Canada reported it at 05.50 GMT, so 07.50 European time.
From st Johns to Ramstein should take somewhere between 6 and 7 hours i guess?
So arrival 14.40 could very well be possible, it's airborne anyway :D

It is *planned* to leave tomorrow, but as you could see above, he had some delays due to tech problems (he also had last week). So you never know with this one..... :wink: (ow now, f*ck, that was not allowed anymore.....)
