BTW, interesting username. As an old Aussie, I straight away thought of the kangaroo in the TV show from the late 60s 'Skippy'.
ha, that's exactly where it came from (although I'm a Brit not an Aussie)

Re: tbg.airframes.io

I've just started using your site on a daily basis, whereas in the past I kind of forgot about in its early days.

It's become a really valuable resource for me picking out the odd bit is useful info that would otherwise be invisible to us.

thanks for supplying the platform

Re: Philippine Air Force Museum

it's still closed (temporary has a different meaning there)

Update will be via Facebook as that is what all business' and agencies use more than websites in PH.

You might get a reply messaging them via FB, but don't hold your breath...

Unless I missed something elsewhere on the thread he asked about the whole exercise.

"Does anyone know if there has been any action in the gorge during the exercise. Usually quieter but didn’t know if completely dead or not."

Thanks for the info.
Yeah I misread the post as I'm on my mobile.

Re: N a s fallon

Fallon uniquely has a local law (or statute) that forbids taking photos outside the base - this is the only base in the US that has this as far as I know, so expect to have an interaction with the police pretty fast telling you to move along.
