Hi all,

coming from Frankfurt - Main the previous day, I spent a day at Ramstein on Monday 03-05 with the following results:

117/XN TBM7 AdlA
00-0180 C-17A McChord
05-5145 C-17A March
07-7171 C-17A Dover
07-7185 C-17A Charleston
08-8190 C-17A Charleston
08-8195 C-17A McChord
58-0056 KC-135R Mississippi
79-1711 KC-10A McGuire
90-1057 C-130H
91-0402 F-16C SP
91-0407 F-16C SP
MM62203 P180 AMI


The 91-0407 was accompanied by another F-16 which was not read since they kind off jumped me...(2 others (or the same?) managed to pull the same trick a little earlier). The 00-0180 came back several minutes after departing and departed again a couple of hours later. A German Tornado crossed the approach a bit too high and fast to read (even though he did sort of give me a chance by banking hard to the left...) The Galaxy and Globemasters already on base which did not move all day were not noted, locals were also omitted from this list.
The next day was for getting home. Off course I made some stops on the way, first one being Spangdahlem.

Greets, Maikel
