EC-333 is the registration on the flight plan. Not always 100% accurate though. The flight plan showed the remark FERRY FLIGHT so I guess a delivery to the RAF.

However it was due to depart Getafe at 1200 and has not departed as yet according to my data - so may be cancelled.

Morning all,
the RAAF KC-30 was the only Airbus product visible on the main ramp when I visited at 02:00 today. I assume last nights delivery ("EC-333") was put away into a hangar? I couldn't read anything of the RAAF but the KC-10/KC-135 like refuelling boom was a big clue :)

Regards,

1363 was only built last month so is not on delivery, not even sure if EADS have bolted the AAR bits on it yet.
