RAAF - Larnaca 15/10/24

Post by NickB » Wed Oct 16, 2024 8:13 am

Leaving Larnaca yesterday 15/10 I spotted the following parked up:

RAAF C17: A41-213

2 X C130J: No serials could be read as was on wrong side of the aircraft!

I know a few weeks ago a couple of RAAF C130Js flew over the UK en-route to Cyprus - I wonder if they are the same airframes?

A97-468 will be one of the C-130J’s you saw at Larnaca, which wasn’t one of the pair that passed through the UK 3 weeks ago , they were A97-441 & A97-465

Thunder - thanks.

I've just seen on ADSB that A97-441 has departed Larnaca, due into Prestwick I believe. This surely must be one of them? It even has a hump on the top of the fuselage which the other one at Larnaca didn't.
