Can you confirm where ZK326 was as it is reported as being in TMF, all black with no engines or wing flaps.

I was there around the same time and didn't log ZK326, but I did log ZK376 in the 'sun shades' next to 427, 311 and 368 (parked in that order). I would guess that 326 might therefore be a mispole / typo of 376?

Hope this helps
Alan

Adding to Ron's log, ZK375 and ZK335 departed around 15:40 as Paladin 21 flight (both in full 41sqn marks) whilst ZK308, ZK330, ZK353 and ZK434 were noted in a row between the 3sqn shelters and were visible from the road near the 29sqn ramp. Finally 916 and 947 were read off in the TMF hangar (assuming that's the big hangar near the 29/12/41 sqn ramp area?).

Cheers
Alan

Evening Alan,

I logged it in the Sun shelters so yes looks like a misread.
Luckily not required sorry for the duff info.

Sounds like the 29sq hangar. Not sure TMF hangar is visible from the BBMF side of the base?
