Wunstorf Top News!

Post by Herby »

Noted at 25.06.2015 around 17.30 h local were four C-160D on the ramp, all with LTG 62 badge. One of them wears the “Hans Huckebein” raven on the fin together with “Fly out Wunstorf”! Another was painted in a new medium sea grey colourscheme(!) with “Luftwaffe” titels like on the A.400M. No serials were noted, no A.400M was seen on the ramp! Happy Spotting!

That grey Transall is, if I remember correct, an instructional airframe, or WFU. Why they painted it grey, I don't know. Thought it was 50+60
