Colin,

Many thanks, have not heard anything since posting this last year. Thought it would be another one to remain unknown.
Thanks again.

Regards,
Alan.

Consulting my bible Alan(`British Aviation Review`) the only ZR they report at Alconbury in Feb'85 was 20153 on the 22nd - may have had a maint problem and delayed possibly?
Better luck with the C-130, reported as C-130E 40533 314TAW.

cheers,
Graham

Graham,

Much appreciated. Wasn't in BARG at that time, so didn't have the resource to hand.

Thanks again.
Alan.
