RCH403 KC135R 63-8888 and RCH445 C5M 85-0005 (from Davis Monthan) in approach to Spang this morning.

Interesting that it's one of several C5s now that arrived this week from Davis Monthan. Looks almost as if they are planning something
(Pure speculation, fueled also by the people that said DM A10s would come to spang soon when the MD A10s landed at Ramstein)

[Jovel]

This morning around 11:00 2 F-35s departed and around 11:10 2 EA-18s departed. Can someone help me with the serials?

I hope you are right but it could also have to do with deliveries to Ukraine: https://twitter.com/defenceu/status/153 ... 39RZHZhMbw

The C17 flight of the 33120 you see in the video took place on the 7th of May. During that period i recorded at least 7 C17 flights to Sliac, i might have missed a few. But is looks like those 11 MI17's have already been delivered. With this i'm not saying DM will deploy to SP!!!
Pieter,

Pieter,

7th of May is too long ago, these helis are really recent, so I would guess the C-5s are indeed for the choppers

You spent the morning at Nörvenich so no visual confirmation from your side for the EA-18s t/o 11:10? In your first post you talk about 530 and 532 and in your last post 533 and 535.

I´ve asked a trustworthy looking spotter for his observations after i read above question regarding the missing #´s, it seems 4x EA-18G´s flew yesterday: 530 and 532 i saw returning around 15:40, 533 and 535 flew a local mission between 11:00 and 13:00ish according said witness at the fence.

[Jovel]

Crystal clear now. Thanks

[Alegro]
