I'll put my money on 168729 since VMFA-211 has been the main source of VMFA-122 first aircraft.

GREAT pictures
nice collection

Thanks for the log. In this picture : https://flic.kr/p/299gCcU you can see the remains of a crashed MV-22B (168634). Just left of the small “carport” like shed in the middle/right. A bit difficult to see from this angle but when on the boat it should have been easier to recognize. You might have no...

Also, those were performed by VX-23

Hi Maarten -many thanks for that advice, about to head there in two weeks. Just wondering did you pre-book or just turn up? We expect to be there on a Friday. Regards, Colin We did a pre-book the afternoon before we went. Do the morning tour otherwise you are facing the sun. Many thanks, will do! F...

Maarten,

They have both 2 and 3 digit codes, in March we saw:
168553/NG-(6)14
167861/NG-(6)15
168559/NG-617

In March we used the Hornblower 1 hour northern harbour tour.

Also near the fire station (32.691446° -117.211321°) are an F/A-18 and C-2. I'm sure the C-2 is a former SARDIP yard inmate.

In March there were 2 deck trainer hornets parked between some cars and 1 Hornet as a fire i/a (the same as on google maps?).

At KLM Cargo now a wrapped UH-1H, no ID possible (yet)

Seen near the B-apron C-GECX /54816 Bell 407GX
