Wobs & Professor M, Thank you very kindly for taking the time to clarify the parking locations of the Bangladeshi & USMC C-130's. I did indeed view that area (including from the crash gate). It was the first place I stopped. Saw everything. But the clag was so bad it was impossible to see markings o...

I made a bit of a rash decision to try for Cambridge after work (at LHR) yesterday afternoon (Thursday 16/11). Got there just before the darkness closed in, but the airfield was covered in low cloud & rain, making visibility dreadful. Saw what looked like a darker green C-130 among the RAF cluster p...

KC3804 is between the hangars.

KC3802 by the Tower. No activity around it yet.

Now to race back to LN.....

As at 10.07 Thursday, all Canadians still present at "CFB" Prestwick. But the C-17 is now flashing up and looking like it's getting ready for departure. 130612 is carrying additional UN fuselage titles. All four Herc's are currently quiet, with no ground crews or activity around them.

Andrew,

Just seen your earlier message.

Glad you were able to tie it up to the correct frame sighting.

Cheers mate.

Grimm, When I arrived at Cambridge today (15/09) at about 16:00, Qatar C-130J 213/MAJ was noted outside, parked next to the special tail colours RAF example, whilst 211/MAH could be seen inside the large hangar near the parking area of 8T-CA & 99-5480. Sorry the times don't perfectly match, but hope...

5N-FGT/NAF001 737NG Nigerian Air Force is due to arrive at Heathrow today at 19:30 for a night-stop. No good for the photographers (again) and no info yet on a departure date & time. Note: the aircraft hasn't departed yet and is subject to the usual caveats. Will update later in the day, if I get an...

For anyone coming to Brize Norton to see KAF328, it is parked in the south-eastern section of the large main apron and is easily visible from along the eastern peri-road that runs past the eastern runway threshold. In daylight, the aircraft can be read off, although it is too far away for decent pic...

The third aircraft has now been pulled out of the hangar and parked next to this facility with the engine blanks in place and (currently) no ground crew in attendance. Hangar doors were wide open when I returned here a few minutes ago, but are now being shut at time 11:19. Am I correct in thinking t...

Aircraft noted with (it would seem) crew in attendance at 08:05.

It's easily seen, southside of the runway and side-on as viewed from the road that runs along the eastern runway threshold.

Rgds,

Richard.

Max/All, At time 07:10 two aircraft are still present. One is still being attended to by ground crew outside the hangars, the other is still visible inside the partially opened & fully lit hangar. Any news on the expected/anticipated arrival time of the fourth machine would be most welcome. Rgds, Ri...

Sorry, first one airborne at 06:38. No hex code showing on SBS.
