Morning all a Request for help here.
I had a very late stop here at 20.45 hrs after a day out on 1.6.24.
I managed to photograph the line up of 12 hercs outside the hangars and in front of the tower and another 3 nose on by the factory gate.
Unfortunately due to the low light I am struggling to read the serials on them.
Does any kind sole happen to know these 15 in the order parked.
MTIA for any help Regards Andy

Noted when 8T-CB arrived this afternoon was the cockpit section of XV208 Snoopy near to the Aero Club car park. It's in bare metal, but where the Engine Test Bed titles once were gives it away.

Thanks for that - as the one I saw wore normal colours I guess it must be the former

I see that S3-AGH has flown an airtest today, missed it yet again.
Can anyone advise if 'AGE is still here/outside please?

She was parked this morning on the side of H17 behind GRE and could be seen, partly obscured by fences, from Barnwell Drive.

Hi, just curious as I may be in the area tomorrow - are there any US C-130s outside at the moment?, Cheers, Keith.

I don’t know what’s outside but I believe there is a BH based USMC Herc due through Cambridge tomorrow afternoon.
