...and before it "Buzzard 51".

88-0446 today runned-off the runway end, nose landing gear collapsed, no further damages visible.

Probabily they wiil fly until the 23rd and than 27-28-29-30th and restart on January 3rd.
Buth Squadron are at home now.

Was this the first overseas "operational" deployment of the Eitam AEW

yes, it was.

The 510th Vipers returned back, 6 last Monday and 10 today.

Just landed in AV, confirmed 89-2152 and 88-0516 both unmarked, "new" Vipers for the 31FW

they will return next friday.

Are six 555th FS F-16s deployed there yesterday?, comfirmation anyone?

Mmmmh, the 555th was deployed to Israel recently and support was sent and sent back with AN 124's, not too heavy cargo and not US personnell problems I think....

At present the USAF has 223 C-17s and 111 C-5s, “more than enough airlift capability for years to come”.

And so why they are renting very expensive An124 flights for some of their missions?

believe they will be back from the sand next September.

The 510th is deployed middle East and the 555th is currently flying mostly night missions.

All sixteen Nickels just returned at home.

Just seen the second cell: 89-2023, 90-0773, 87-0350, 87-0355(510) 89-2008(510) 89-2068 "Cube 21-26".

They were followed by "Nickel 51-54" going to Tanagra, don't know if fuel-stopping for further place or not.
