Had a quick call in today (first time in quite a few years) was wondering if anybody could help with a tying up a Typhoon reg! Viewing from the BBMF hangar area it was in the hangar on the left of the main apron & amongst all the Typhoons in there was one with what looked like a white nose?
Thanks in advance. Dave.

Not sure the best place to put this, but from my visit on Tuesday 7th September it became apparent that ZK348 is currently pinging as ZK352 on FR24/ADSB and ZK366 is pinging as ZK334.
Also, the Typhoon pinging as ZK321 is actually either ZJ949 or ZK310, but I couldn't work out which (it flew Tuesday p.m as RAZOR 13)

Might be of use to someone

Regards
Alan

Yes, the batch of 7 Typhoons at the very end of Milky's list are currently based with 3 squadron, he's just forgotten to add the header for them I think. :)
This season, I'll be mostly wearing........A THONG!
