Re: Stans - Buochs 2022

Thanks for the LOG.

Also seen on 29 April was a (complete) French PC-21 in the left corner of Hall II (Signalkuppe).
Where were 19/709-GB and 20/709-GC standing compared to 18/709-GA?

TIA.

Re: F-35 Lightning II developments

CF-62 should be 169941, so CF-63 is more likely than.

FY2019 LRIP 14 (9x C) should be?:
169798 (CF-54) - 169803 (CF-59)
169939 (CF-60) - 169941 (CF-62)

164122/WP-35 was seen at Mesa Gateway the same day as some of the other TAV-8B's at El Centro, so a likely candidate?

In the time it was not delivered, a fake 169564 start showing around of which it's real ID was confirmed as 168854. Last month, a new 169564 was reported at the factory (the one you s...
