Just seen at SBS screen (09.40 10-08-2009)
63-8043/AK showing callsign Artic92 but not heard on scanner.
I assume one of the 168th ARW for tdy at Geilenkirchen.
(notes: a free afternoon was used for a tour through the "Jülicher Börde" area, allowing also for a deviation of some two-and-a-half hours to Geilenkrichen airbase. While I hoped for weekend recoveries of maybe two "Sentrys", no less than four examples arrived and all of them even performed some local flying training. After almost one year absence from the NAEWF main operational base, the sight of these large, old-style strategic reconnaissance aircraft was a really enjoyable sight ...)
I'm not sure if this is the right topic for this, but since it concerns everyone visiting this base today I thought I might wanna post it here.
Today I visited Geilenkirchen, but while leaving I somehow forgot to take my scanner with me (yeah very stupid, I know!). I somehow lost it either along the fence/footpath on the East side or at the parking lot near the soccer field. I only noted the absence when we arrived at the Nordhorn Range (some 200km's Northbound).
Any help retrieving my "good old" Yupiteru MVT-7100 will be appreciated!
