Noted Sunday morning were most* of the above, but just 13 Raptors, of which 10 were read, I'd be very happy if anyone has a list from this morning.
Other than that noted here were DW00/164892 F/A-18C & DW13/164650 F/A-18D plus Dobbins C-130 20550 and three TAW-5 (E) Texans 166065, 161116 & 161118 on the FBO. Chilean 911 (presumably their legacy GIV and not a newer model), plus Coast Guard 02 & C-37 165094 were parked with a local aircraft manufacturer.
*Talon 68-8186 had replaced 66-8404 - it was parked on the end of the line of 8 so may be an addition.

Currently at the CRTC/ADC are the following P8As 167952 168996. Neither have any marks other than last threes on nose and tail. 952 arrived as KH-101. Not sure of call sign for 996.
Also a P3 landed calling LX-121 using ModeS AE1D4F (shows as 161338 on my database) but I couldn't see any marks anywhere on it.
Arriving this afternoon was 77ARS KC135R 57-1437 with gr/yl fin stripe.

[raameagle]

AFAIK, these are now based at Dallas Love-Field...

BuNo 161338 was scrapped in 2015 after it was damaged inside the Nippi hangar.
BuNo 161337 is a well known Orion operated unmarked by Bupers SDC at Dallas. Do you have pictures of this P-3.
Both P-8 are also operated by Bupers SDC for the development of the AAS system

Sorry no photos of the P3, it arrived in a rain storm and I never saw it move after that. They had all gone by Friday.

163142/VE-212 VMFA-115
164735/ED-214 VMFA(AW)-533

And T6As 80FTW "EN" gr/wt

Small correction on ED-214, it is just marked as VMFA on the fuselage the (AW)-533 has been painted over.
