Keep a listen out in case there are air spares?

[bizfreeq]

8 aircraft left, only 6 callsigns? Two air spares?

[slogen51]

Sorry typo then I couldn't log back in to fix

Tabor 58 is on 275.625 dumping fuel ( probably 57 as well)

[bizfreeq]

Fair enough, sounds like the air spares are indeed returning then

[slogen51]

FC keeps kicking me out of the OTT section

I logged these around lunchtime - that is, after the first batch of MO F-15 left and their air spared returned…
