The T-6 will come to the same happens when Caen

Aparently the ferry crew also found out that Caen is closed. According to Martin McRobert at scotavnet they have to decide where the next stop will be. I've suggested either Antwerp or Eindhoven as their next destination! So wait an see.

HKB122/473Â Texan 2Â flightplanned out of Glasgow to Deauville - Saint Gatien/LFRG 1000 ATCÂ Â eta 1405 UTC

So I think we can say goodby to the route through either Antwerp/Oostende for the Texan deliveries. A 5+ hour drive, one way, is a lot!

Finaly! It was already noticed at Witchita Field on the 5th of Nov 2009. Should be PI-1 and ex N2849B.

Thanks for the information Mark! Btw; is Ping located at Greenland?

Jeroen

As far as I am aware,Ping is at YYZ ,where I was on 19/20th August.A pity the T-6 was not to be seen there.

The one in Greenland would be "Pingu"

Well there's another set underway; HKB178 and HKB777 landed yesterday at CFB Goose Bay. So today (Sunday 12th of September) they should make the crossing to Iceland (but no flightplans yet for Greenland). And tomorrow UK/France.

Another one HKB176 was on Flightaware on the 6th from CYYR to Greenland.
It never got any further than Greenland, what happened to that guy?

HKB176 was N3000B, Hawker Beechcraft demonstrator. It flew from Keflavik to Edinburgh on the 7th September and from Edinburgh to Toulouse on the 9th.

According to flightplan:

HKB777 TEX2 = 555
HKB178 TEX2 = 510
HKB165 TEX2 = 509

[jreijmer]

According to flightplan:

HKB777 TEX2 = 555
HKB178 TEX2 = 510
HKB165 TEX2 = 509

Mmm. I think you have "sticky keys" as HKB177 should be 511 (which is in line with the others). I just received the following detailed information by mail:

The third one (509) is due Tomorrow around 1100 zulu, however he is trying to catch up
with the first two... hoping to arrive Glasgow tonight around 1830 zulu
510/511 will be night stopping in Glasgow, due out around 0900 zulu, however
might wait for number three.

Time will tell if he makes it ....understand they are moving on to LFRK/Caen

So good luck to the Glasgow/Caen spotters! You can also expect other Israeli and Iraqi deliveries as there are already other a/c noted at Beech Field.

No sticky fingers over here. I only presented the regs mentioned in their flightplan!
