Re: Chania (Souda Bay) LGSA/CHQ 2022 MIL

Thanks for the confirmation, Antillian.

I believe that Exercise Falcon Eye 3 didn't start until the 9th. Four F-15's were seen flying on the afternoon of that day, and in the evening of the 9th 5 of the 6 were parked faced the opposite direction to the one they were facing on the morning of the 8th.

Re: Chania (Souda Bay) LGSA/CHQ 2022 MIL

Thank you for your report, Antillian. I am not able to confirm any of your queries, sorry. Regarding the EP-3E, may I ask if you read it off, please? FR24's on ground list gave 159893 as having landed on Sunday 6th as QY84.

Cheers, David

Re: 1 AD CAB take over from 1 Air Cav

Re viewing: the CH-47F's are extremely easy to read, the UH-60L's a little less so & the AH-64E's are ok if you are lucky with the light, as in these pictures taken at about 07:15 local time

Re: ETAR 11-8-2022

If its of interest I believe that C-130H 95-1001 of the 109th AS, MN ANG arrived at RMS on the 8th and is still present, but whether its a transient, broken down or there on TDY I don't know.

Re: ETAR 11-8-2022

Patrick - I believe that 90-1793 & 90-1795 arrived at RMS on the 9th and that 90-1798 & 91-1652 had been on TDY at RMS for a while.

The other 3 departures were C-130H's of the 757th AS AFRC (one of which also arrived on the 9th, the other two having been on TDY at RMS for a while too)

Re: Defile 14 Juillet 2022 Paris

Thank you very much for typing out the log, Antilliaan!

A couple of answers for now

?? Rafale M = 5
?? E-2C = 2

F-RBAD A400M = F-RBAO

46-42? C-130J (IT) = 46+44


I haven't yet looked through the other Rafales

Re: Help with aircraft type, USS Midway Museum Restoration area, NAS North Island

Thank you for your contributions. I think that it was probably the fuselage of a Cutlass. The Google Maps image must be from a while ago, as now there is an F-4 and a Blue Angels F/A-18C in that area, plus a nearly complete Cutlass. The fuselage I am interested in has a HUD in the cockpit so I doubt...

Help with aircraft type, USS Midway Museum Restoration area, NAS North Island

Hi All,

Visible on Google Maps at 32.70822951509778, -117.21632818865666 is the centre and forward fuselage of an aircraft I can't identify. Can any of you help with identifying the type, please?

This was, I believe, seen by me from the boat tour on 04.03.2022.


Thank you very much,

David
