Hi,
Correct, I noted 169612 at Nellis on July 15th.

Rgds,

Could be. My sources are checking. Perhaps a re-delivery or BF-78 and a slip of the thumb.

Hi,
Well, not a slip of my thumb for sure. I have one of my photo's clearly showing 169612/DC-05 of VMFA-122 but cannot get this to upload here.

Not yours but Lockheeds. They have confirmed it was BF-78.

Hope everyone can be at ease again!

But which LRIP are those? FY2016 LRIP 10 OCO or FY2016 LRIP 11?
