Just to make sure: 15:12 is the local time at which she is expected to land.
ETA R74 15:20.

For a moment I thought she'd arrive on December 15th (15.12 instead of 15:12)..... In which case I wouldn't have missed her... off to XMN tomorrow :cry:

Guys,to be honest I don't think the C-17 will depart today. Because there has to be a 12 hour time difference for overseas flights.
And honestly I don't think they will carry a 2nd crew with them.

So relax, enjoy because I think you guys will have some night shots later on.

Any idea on the RWY yet ? Seeyou guys in a few hours near the fence :worship: :lol: :respect:

18R or 18C but which one will depend on exact arrival time and traffic demand.

Already passed Rome. I would think that puts it more around 14:30LT for arrival, in which case the chances for 18R increase a lot.
