Hammarö,

I'm sorry to contradict you, but you must be quoting from https://www.scribd.com/doc/281363147/AP ... -15-R-0045 which was only accurate as at 01 July 2015.

There are no RO-6As out in S Korea at present.

15-00338 was one of the first three noted (as military serialled) at Tucson back in March this year. '352 and '358 passed through the UK in October 2016 and July 2016 respectively heading back to CONUS.

Regards,

Bob

Yes they have newly arrived from Korea.

Have they get the ARL rebuild?

Have the EO-5 retired after plan (plan 2018)?

Bob you say AE5C92 is not likely to be a RO-6A. I am not saying it is an RO-6A, but it perfectly fits in the other RO-6A hexcodes :
AE5C8C 15-00352
AE5C8D nn
AE5C8E 15-00358
AE5C8F nn but HEX noted Tuscon feb and aug-16
AE5C90 15-00577
AE5C91 nn
AE5C92 your Crook 47.
Best Regards Pieter,

Pieter,

Today I have noted (on ADS-B Exchange) AE5C91 over Tucson with "50332" showing in the callsign box. So that ties that one up - and proves me wrong. Oh well, logic goes out the window.

Regards,

Bob

EDIT:- The callsign seems to be switching between "50332" and "50322"

A bit of news that went largely unnoticed but deserves mention here was the deactivation of the 306th MI Bn at Fort Hood last September. This unit flew the Beech 300 MARSS aircraft (not the Beech 350ER EMARSS) and deployed to Afghanistan; its sister squadron, the 206th (which deploys to Iraq area) remains, perhaps signifying a greater focus on Iraq. The Beech 300 in US Army service has not received an MDS in the C-12 series and has been seen with 'N'-type registrations, although a few have been noted with Army serial tie-ups in the '07-' range.
