Cambridge (EGSC/CBG) 2011-MIL

Post by Bennie »

Currently over the Netherlands inbound Cambridge is SVF8, which is a Swedish military callsign. No idea what aircraft type, but it is not fast nor flying very high (FL240).

If I am not mistaken that is the fixed callsign for TP100 100008.

That would explain the speed and level it is flying at!

These three were subject of a spirited explosion of ecstacy on various aviation news forums, so... I guess it is pretty good info. See http://www.c-130herculesvrienden.nl/c-1 ... DN7851.jpg .
