I've heard that the German P-3 arrived on Friday with a support C-160D,any more news folks ?

Noted at 11.50 today (05/10/09)were:- 1 x P3 (German) + 1 other.2 x Cobham F20's (1 was G-FRAR) and "122" Tornado GR4.


Noted at 15.00 :- 4/5 Hawks(1 in anniversary scheme),4 x Cobham F20's,3 x P-3's(1 landed at 12.15 and seen from Lossie) and a French? Atlantique ( landed at 14.20 and also seen from LM).

All the based Nimrods are now on the Northside and all visiting aircraft are on the Southern Apron with the larger aircraft parked behind the tower,so very difficult to identify.

Any serial tie-ups appreciated.


Thanks Guys.

Just got the tie-ups from Scotavnet (thanks lads).
P-3's 60+05,60+06 and Norwegian 3297.
Atlantique No.9
Cobham F20's G-FRAI,J,R and G-FFRA
Navy Hawks XX170,205,221,261 and 316
Danish C-130 B-583
USAFE C-21 40083

I can't say I saw the C-130 and C-21 though,don't need either anyway !

Any news of the fast jet visitors yet?

I saw the Danish C130 and can confirm it was a C-130J-30 arriving around 15.30, also saw a P3 go in around 19.00

No.19,another French Atlantique has turned up.Was noted yesterday.
Thanks to Scotavnet.

Another Hawk turned up with special Navy scheme today, sorry didin't get serial, but it was using callsign Navy61 if thats any help.

XX159/NAVY 61 & XX205/NAVY 62, in Prestwick lunch time-both spl.mks.

Another arrival is 140106 Canadian CP-140.

Hi guys oop north

Any ideas on type and serial of FNY 5142 which did an overshoot at Cardiff at 1615 before heading for Kinloss? thanks to Razor 61 it should be an Atlantique/S.Etendard, i think its probably an Atlantique.

Can anyone confirm

Many thanks

Gareth

Just told by a friend it was inbound from Lorient so would make it an Atlantique, any idea on serial?

Thanks

Flying today (Saturday) were P3s 3297 and 6006 also Nimrod XV226 with 40 Years marks on tail

Has anyone a departure date for the Aircraft at Kinloss ?

Many Thanks.
