Stored Swedes

Post by Rch135 » Sat Oct 02, 2021 7:49 am

Have Herd The Following That Might be of interest
The 2 Long Term Stored Swedish TP84s 84001/841(Arr-09/06/14) + 84003/843(Arr-18/11/14)
Have Now Been Moved From By The Tower To 17H Apron (R05 end)
Both are due Shortly to Be De-assembled and Transported Back to Sweden.
Understand 841 Will be Refurbished as a Static Museum Exhibit at The Swedish AF Museum at Malmen AB.
Not Sure What The Plan is For 843.
Guess The Cambridge Spotters Group Might Be Able to confirm Whether this 100% Correct.

They've certainly been there for a while, so I've been wondering what was going to happen with them. 84001 was the first C-130 to be delivered to a European air arm, so be good to see it have a secure future.

Situation at 5PM 10-10-21

Found 841 parked near the large Marshalls hangar appeared complete.
A second C130 was present minus tail, wings, looking very sad, noticed it had the swedish badge on rear of fuselage so guessing it was 843

The ex RAF C130J with blanked out reg ZH888 was still parked near the tower
