Why do you have this as ASY517 on your blog but ASY216 on your post? As far as Mode-S is concerned they were broadcasting as ASY517/518 respectively yesterday and today. Were they in fact calling ASY216 on RT both days?
Just re-read your post. Very confusing posting the arrival of yesterdays C-17 today and not including todays arrival. Any confirmation of what RT callsign they used appreciated for both.

Both due to depart today. One 16:00, the other 18:00.
Similarly, the AN124 is due to depart at 16:00.
HTH the guys at the fence!

Cheers! If anyone can update when they are on the move on the ground it would be a great help. I am in London so hoping for an OTT sighting (if they come this way of course)

Any sign of the C-17s departing? Trying to decide whether to make a dash from Reading.
Thanks

I know that and this is a thread about the C17s. That's why I asked the question after Bob said I wouldn't see them as they were going to Lossie

Obviously he did but as he posted in a thread that is only to do with the C17s I queried it!

The C-17s and S-70H-60s are closely related and sometimes such threads get "intertwined", which can be a bit annoying but usually sorts itself out.
Surprising that someone who has never posted before in 6 years of membership turns to insults and belligerence - not the best way if you want people to be helpful.

Is there any need for that? The thread is C17s not MH60s!

I apologise for that. Yes, I was thinking I was in the MH-60 thread
