Seen a picture on X (Twitter) which confirms the C101 as E.25-81 793-01.

Was one of the C212s on the Airbus side? I saw an unmarked one there on 10th Oct.

No serials as was on high ground overlooking Torrejon on Fri 11th, but can confirm x5 AV-8s arrived & taxied to middle row of barns. Also noted were x2 Hornets departing & later returned with a EF2000T (which may have taken also taken off with them but not seen).
Also of note on CLAEX ramp was a EF in a barn there & a Hornet was towed out & into the other barn. Too far away to read off.
Hadn’t seen any F5s arrive by 1pm approx.

nb an H135 has been active over Madrid during the last few days with hex 34738C, which FR24 shows as Guardia Civil H.26-29 - it is actually Policia Nacional EC-OIC, marked Angel07.

Dia de Hispanidad flypast rehearsals, Thursday 10.10.24

I heard jet noise or saw aircraft over Madrid on three occasions last Thursday. I was taken by surprise so wasn’t properly equipped so just made some notes of aircraft involved from flight trackers seen on the phone:

E.27-16 PC-21

TK.23-14 A400M

T.23-06 A400M

T.21-12 C295

D.4-06 CN35

HT.21A-03 AS32

HE.26-24/VERDE87 EC35

HU.26-36A/CUCO71 EC35

EC-OEZ, EC-NZE, EC-LBD, EC-LOS EC35

The Eurofighters, EF-18’s, CASA 101, CL415, 2 more CN295’s, and a couple more helicopters with the Super Puma (NH90’s?) didn’t display on the flight trackers.

Torrejon
AV8 EF18 SF5M EUROFIGHTER serials anyone?

A friend has identified 3 of the Typhoons (14-14,14-64 & 14-78) from photos posted on 'X'.
Is anyone able to confirm the total number of Typhoons on the ground at Torrejon on that very wet Saturday morning, please?
Freeman

[Crowflight]

Any info on the Harriers? I haven’t seen anything anywhere. Thanks if anyone can help.

[Zonan]

There were a total of at least 11 typhoons. On friday 9 of Ala 14 arrived and earlier 2 of Ala 11 arrived, which departed saturday (11-02 and 11-10, both dualseats)
The ones of Ala 14 were, by code:
14-39, 14-58, 14-59,
14-62, 14-64, 14-67,
14-77, 14-78, 14-11 (Dualseat)

5 harriers arrived on friday morning, we were too late for them and didn't manage to see the serials

The is a magnificent photo on "x" by @ ismaeljorda of 14-14 departing in the rain. Well worth a look.
