Hi VH3D,

That is definitely where 0065 was parked (next to the "round" hangar). It was there bright and early on the 9th (I understand outside overnight 8-9th) and was read off from the S side (ie the left side of the fin on your pic) . Anyone with more pics of 0142/F-RBAY?

Cheers Herby. Whilst we're on the subject, what about 54+35? As far as I'm aware, this f/f 18.5.20 and hasn't flown since 13.8.20 (not yet d/d). Something strange going on.

Herby,

Not 100% until it is painted up I suppose, but it is definitely German (wears the flag) and it's the one after 5450/MSN144. Still in primer 10th Dec.

VH3D,

0065/F-RBAM was outside 8/9/10th Dec and departed to Orleans at 18:30 on 13th Dec. F-RBAY is 0142 and hasn't flown since 28th Nov. We only saw one French A400, 0065/F-RBAM, unless our unidentified example that was pulled out shortly before our departure (10th dec) proves to be French.

Hi Joris,

I'd suggest your Eurofighter would be CSX7338 - this one (4 Stormo and RSV marks):-

I photographed it on the flight line Friday late afternoon/evening.

Typo on G-BXGL Piet - should be WZ882.

More convenient location than Henstridge!

Cheers,

Mike

Ooops, yes - my typo. 169442/35 VMR-30 Det.2. Apols.

Yes, I too was wondering if IN751/752 had already departed NASNI.

Mike

So far as I am aware, I've seen no sightings of 169441 and 169450 at North Island during October. 169452 came back from Japan by sea and flew from San Diego port the short hop to North Island on 5.10.

On another topic, anyone seen Indian MH-60s IN751 and IN752 during October?

Mike
