Thessalonica Airport

Post by Nnthusiast » Tue May 23, 2023 1:32 pm

Seen yesterday 22nd May 2023 landing here from the UK on a morning flight from Manchester. (sorry, no reg's)

2x Canadair water bombers

2 x Greek Dakotas

1 x Phantom

many many F-5's (strewn around the field)

1 x F-4 phantom on far left side opposite main terminal and

4 x USAF A-10's (1 powered up but 3 of the 4 with canopies open)

Assorted civilian.

If anyone can help with registrations of the military stuff i'd be grateful.
Cheers

At the time you were there, I think there should have been 5x A-10s in total from the serials listed below, afraid I cant be much more help but hopefully this is a start!
Arrived at Thessalonica as:
TREND21 78-0605
TREND22 78-0631
TREND23 78-0655
TREND24 80-0201

Hi Nnthusiast,
I was there is september 2022 and together with some Greek spotters I got all serials from stored/preserved F--5, F-4 and C-47.
I can help you if you have positions, or maybe you made overview pics while landing? See also Eurodemobbed for pics.
Please send me a PM

Regards,
Erik
