Nice log. Did 15973 have a small serial a la MC or were the last 3 (973) in larger font a la an HC?

Thanks for the US Army sightings.
Are you absolutely certain about UH-60 821?
I think it is much more likely to have been 83-23891. This is an ex Winder-based machine transferred c Mar23 when Winder received UH-60Vs, and last physically seen in Aug23.
It does have a highlighted last three.
Looking at ADSB if flew from Dobbins on both 11 September and 14 September.

Looking back at my log and your comments Andy.
It was the last on the row just as you round the 2nd bend coming back from Lockheed, I did not get the first two digits due to angle parked and double fence, therefore it's likely a misread from me.

Going through my 2023 loggings, I see that I never placed a report of my visit here on December 13th.
Apart from the museum stuff I logged the following:

92-0550 C130H 700AS
92-0551 C130H 700AS
93-1037 C130H 700AS
93-1039 C130H 700AS
(62-3615)/TY T38A “2FTS” (Scramble DB mentions this serial until OCT23; any sightings since?)
62-3706/FF T38A USAF/nn
55+06 C130J-30 Lw/nn +1
A-1342 C130J-30 TNIAU/nn
A-1344 C130J-30 TNIAU/nn

I didn't dare stop to have a closer look at the based helos... :oops:
