Net na 10.00u kwam er een CN235 overhead inbound Eindhoven.
CTM2018 serial 123 volgens ADSB.

Op deze dag deden 6 transport kisten een rondje NL en op de terugweg naar Eindhoven even een low appraoch RWY10.
Twee NL C-130s voorop, dan de RS C-130, als 4e de C-160D en daarachter twee ANG C-130's.

Kort daarna kwamen 4 AH-64's binnen. Redskin41-44.

Beach end is great, but you need 400mm minimal. I was there last year July and got E164/8-RV as well.
We stayed a week at the Capfun camping next to the fence. Singapore's, Belgians as well as the helicopters all came over the camping, the French A-Jets went the other way.

Thank you for the list. Any news on F/A-18A 162430/MA03? Did it leave the unit this year?

Mel, 164980 has modex DR-312.

For some kind of reason we didn't take many photos of the Singapore's. None of us has the one on E10, can't remember why. I have 52, 53 & 56 which all seem to have the same load out as you mention, but this might be standard? We didn't visit their hangar this time, so can't tell if more were on base...

Sjoerd, here's our overview from the 13th. As you can see most are in different positions, so not much help I'm afraid. Most likely the AAC Apache on E1 is one from row A and was moved while we were inside a hangar as I believe there were only six on TDY. # are Longbow equipped https://live.staticfl...

FWIW, these were noted on 13 March 2009.

They are the six I mentioned above plus 169622/06 & 169627 u/m.

Good evening, The final VMFA-211 F-35s departed 15 minutes ago from Elmendorf AFB to Iwakuni as FEUD 23 and 24. Supporting KC-10 is PETRO 65 (83-0076). RH. Both have arrived, Buno's 169622/06 & 169627 u/m. BTW, F-35 169623 is now unmarked while it arrived two weeks ago with modex 07. So maybe not U...
