Re: Prestwick (EGPK/PIK) - 2012 MIL
Good evening,
This year's family-summer holiday was spent in Scotland. As being close to Prestwick, I passed
the airfield on several occasions (ofcourse beside two visits on purpose).
I've got two questions:
Thursday the 5th of July around 11AM I noticed a USAF KC10 taxiing, it obviously just arrived.
Anyone for the ID of this one ?
Thursday the 12th of July close to 3PM a Cargolux 747 took off. Anyone for the ID of this one ?
Haste ye back !
Thanks in advance,
regards,
Remco
