Luke AFB show Sun 18th April - non-static only

Post by MartinK »

All

very rough log for the non-static aircraft, additions requested. We thought there were 39 F-35 present so about 9 remain unidentified. Only a token effort on the F-16s.

Thanks for sharing.
When looking from the static, left of MM7335 was Norway 5147 and right of it MM7334.
The row behind that row were 3x USA
The row after that were 4x Norway from left to right: 5146, 5145, 5110 and 1 more.
Behind that row were 2 rows Singapore F-16s

I was a bit thrown off by the header. Shouldn't it read "March" iso "April"? Thanks for the log though!

All

thanks to inputs from others I have updated the original list I posted. By some miracle it now contains 39 F-35s which is how many we counted. I have also corrected the date to March!

Can you tell me where 5048 was seen?

@K2G: did you see it on friday evening as well?

It was in a line of 3 facing to the left from the static and was the aircraft furthest from the static, with 5038 and 5040 being the other two. I think the line was up towards the A10s and the Twin Otter.

Hi,

Ok, this one might be in my list as 5049. I just checked my pictures and at first glance it appears to be 5049 but it might have been 5048. I have 17 serials in my list and there only were 17 at this ramp so it cannot be both 5048 and 5049 for those who do care to not have 18 serials for 17 aircraft! :wink:

Can anyone who not had his pictures deleted by security forces confirm 5048 or 5049?

Paul,

12-5049 is a Nellis bird and was seen by myself last February.

Hi Paul,
A few additions/remarks in bold below:
Read off by us were the following (note that most F-35 fiscal years were looked up)

56FW/nn : F-35A : LF/10-5009 LF/10-5010 OT/10-5011 LF/11-5036 LF/11-5037 LF/11-5038 LF/11-5040 LF/12-5049 LF/12-5054 LF/15-512063FS
LF/15-5123 LF/15-5125 LF/15-5127 LF/15-5129 LF/15-5135 flying LF/15-5161 LF/15-5164

56FW/21FS : F-16C : LF/93-0705 LF/93-0706 LF/93-0707 LF/93-0708 LF/93-0709
56FW/21FS: F-16D : LF/93-0816

I think there were two lines of Taiwanese?? Did we miss some? => I also read off 93-722. These are F-16A and B by the way AFAIK, not C and D

56FW/310FS : F-16C : LF/87-0358 LF/87-0360944FG LF/88-0475 LF/88-0493 also flying LF/88-0508 => I have one as 944 FW, which I read of as 87-0xxx, not 344 FG, that's probably your 87-0360?
LF/89-2056 LF/90-0705 also flying LF/90-0754 LF/90-0759 LF/90-0760
LF/90-0762 LF/90-0765
56FW/310FS : F-16D : LF/88-0161 LF/88-0162 LF/88-0163 LF/88-0175 LF/89-2156? LF/89-2159 LF/89-2164 LF/89-2179 LF/90-0778 => I don't have 2156, was this the last one in a row? I know I couldn't read off one of the 310 FS aircraft, and only noticed at home I never got a look from a different angle...
I do have 88-175/LF and 89-097/LF of 310 FS as well plus unmarked 87-358/LF which should also belong to 310 FS


56FW/309FS : F-16C : LF/84-1216 LF/84-1284 LF/84-1302 LF/84-13_7? LF/85-1407 LF/85-1439 LF/85-1443 => I read off 84-1327/LF
56FS/309FS: F-16D : LF/83-1160 LF/83-1184 LF/84-1324 LF/84-1331
=> I also have 84-308 and 84-297 of 309 FS

Main ramp:

FF/08-4163 F-22A 1FW

56FW : F-35A : LF/09-5006 LF/11-503061FS LF/12-5042 LF/12-5043 LF/12-5044
LF/12-5045 LF/12-5046 LF/12-5055 LF/12-5059

=> I also read off 5035/LF

RAAF : F-35A : A35-003 A35-004 A35-005
AMI : F-35A : 32-03 32-04
RNoAF : F-35A : 5045 5088 5110 5146 5147 => 5045 should read 5145

56FW/425FS : F-16C : LF/97-0112 LF/97-0113 LF/97-0120 LF/97-0121 LF/94-0273
56FW/425FS: F-16D : LF/94-0281 LF/94-0282 LF/94-0283 LF/96-5034 LF/96-5035

I just found out that we saw 5049 at Nellis marked "USAF WS"!

So a misread from my pictures. Thanks for the other additions. I will check my pictures this evening.

Greetings, Paul
