[P.knacker]

If we heard it correct (out off the hotel) the first wave took off at approx 08.15 and the second wave at 08.45
This would fit the info given to us in a restaurant by the C-130J(SAR) crew.

[Thunderbolt]

That's correct P.Knacker. I was there when they departure.

Cheers!

I am looking for a map of this airport, something like a Google Earth map. The runway, taxiways and the apron has to be on it and also the roads surrounding the airport.

Can someone help me with it?

[Fireman Sam]

Hi Flyboeing there isn´t any google map or similar for Lajes because its considered a sensible area

Here is a map for you, hope that will help you, any question please ask

I think this was the other cell of the VMFA-112 deployment, that you mentioned in the Moron topic.
GOLD 61 arrived at Bangor that day, and departed to Moron September 11 with Mazda 11 flight.
They were all under Coronet East 161.

Hope this helps,
