MO F15E 90-0255 arrived 29th and replaced either 90-0236 or 91-0319 (I think).

With the MOs most are actually tiger fin stripes rather than red/yellow. 87-0208/209 are red/yellow rest are tiger except 91-0600 (no stripe). I haven't confirmed 90-0236, 90-0242 and 91-0319 from pics yet.

SW F16C 01-7051 tig is an addition
CF-06 is 169924
CF-09 is 169614
AF-503 is 168389
NL-520 is 166855
NL-521 is 166933
NL-522 is 168375

Additional HH60Ws believed to be visitors or participants noted on 28th were:
20-14504, 21-14522, 21-14523, 21-14528. 21-14520 is also reported to be there but I haven't seen it yet

Hi Andy,

Kind Regards.

The B-2 was confirmed as 21068.
My message was directly under the one asking for confirmation, so I didn't see the need to quote the message.....

Outside Nellis right now…
Looks like only one B-2 on the ramp. There were 4 yesterday

Seems like out of the three that participated in the night mission on Thursday only one came back and that one departed Friday morning (1085).

E3G 79-0002 OK rd arrived yesterday and 76-1607 went back to KTIK
EA18G NL-523 is 169145
F35B CF-08 flew yesterday and confirmed as 169610
MO 91-0319 flew yesterday so it looks like 90-0236 was the one replaced
No sign of HH60W 21-14520 again and it shows on ADSB as flying from Sedona to Moffett yesterday so I think the report of it being here was incorrect

On Wednesday, Jan 29 I noted the following HH-60W's on the Jolly ramp:
20-14500, 20-14501, 20-14502, 20-14504, 21-14515, 21-14522, 21-14523, 21-14528.

ok here is the list...from Jan 29 to Jan 31. not a lot of photos from Friday Jan 31 since it was overcast. and i might have missed a few but i got most jets that flew in those 3 days during RF25-1.
On Wednesday Jan 29, 3 fighters had to return mid sortie due to emergency: MO F-15E 91-0323, JZ F-15C 82-0010 due to nose gear (unable to retract the nose gear after taking off from Nellis), RAF Typhoon ZK378
On Friday Jan 31, RAF A330 Tanker ZZ335 declared an emergency (PAN-PAN according to the PM) had to return right after they got to their location. Sat outside the runway for a while before taxiing back to the ramp. They didn't get to play that day.

Yes, 95913 read on 28/29 Jan

Yes, 95913 read on 28/29 Jan

From photo I am reading 85913. And that falls in line with other C-130's manufactured making it 18-5913.

Excuse, was the same thing I could read-off.
