Voyager ZZ333 is on the FR24 arrivals board for 16:44 tonight.

The RAF MRTT leaves tomorrow 12 noon and should return at the end of the day. My source reckons it's ZZ330. Has anyone actually seen it?

FR24 says its ZZ333, ZZ330 went to Birmingham yesterday so its unlikely to be that one.

Thanks, that explains my confusion

I believe ZZ333 is leaving again tomorrow (Mon) at 11am and could be back late afternoon.

Also hearing that there is a USAF C-17 in from Ramstein midday. I don't think it is staying long though.

C17A 07-7186 437AW departed at 14:50 c/s Reach 4122

Robert Harris.

I believe the RAF MRTT is out 9am tomorrow and returns late afternoon before leaving again mid-evening.

Expecting the RAF MRTT to make an appearance again Wednesday.

Late evening, 21:00 ish, rumours of a rare Canadian air force C-17 for a nightstop possibly reg 177702.

Edit: apologies, just noticed Ramp Rat said something similar above.

Looks like late afternoon tomorrow could be the dry run for the POTUS journey into town, hence all the Chinooks.

ZZ330 is leaving 9am'ish tomorrow and should be back17:30.

Along with the scheduled USAF C-17 and the Canadian C-17 departure, 3:30 to 6:30pm looks like a great time to visit STN for a look. It's a shame I am away travelling tomorrow

Not regular visitor to STN. What are the photo opertunities like from the Ash Pathway of the POTUS Chinook visitors today. Would a better location be on approach or Belmer Road ?

Am hearing ZZ330 is doing yet another 'out and back' tomorrow, leaving late morning. If this continues at this rate it might be cheaper for the MOD to put the squaddies on Ryanair flights !!

Oh nearly forgot, there are apparently also up to four USAF C17's due in tomorrow morning.............. I doubt any of them are staying long.

Guessing POTUS will be a PM arrival?

That’s the burning question now, isn’t it? Some time over the weekend I assume.

It’s not on the public schedule for today - https://factba.se/biden/calendar

Reach 4530 near Luton, Reach 4552 over Belfast, heading our way.

https://nats-uk.ead-it.com/cms-nats/exp ... Y-2023.pdf

Seems to confirm the dates and times

Thanks for info. Will he arrange to have the thunderstorms diverted?

ZZ330 will be leaving yet again breakfast time tomorrow morning , back again mid-afternoon.

The local lists are suggesting 3 C17’s on Monday to pick up kit.

ZZ330 returned from Rzeszow 14:35

UAE Royal Flight A6-HRM 747 landed 14:50.
