The purpose of the trip was specifically to get the two U-28As that arrived Mildenhall yesterday and stay a couple of nights to get the 3rd one if it arrives on Monday (plus HC-130N hopefully). In addition, I have heard some rumours of some goodies going into Lakenheath on Monday for a baseball game (GAF A.400 and Polish B738).
Sunday 10th March 2019
Brize Norton Was going to stop in here for the UAE AF L-100-30 1217, but it requested engine start 10min before I was due to leave...….so didn't bother visiting. Kuwait AF KC-130J KAF328 is still there.
Mildenhall Visitors on arrival 64-14845/OF RC-135V 55WG...…….this is the TDY machine 64-14846/OF RC-135V 55WG 04-0688 U-28A 319SOS 07-0691 U-28A 319SOS N713CK B744 Kalitta Air
Arrival 16.30z "RCH137" 59-1461 KC-135R 126ARS/Wisconsin ANG...……...diversion from a rather windy Spangdahlem |

Back home tomorrow for some pre-arranged work to be done on the garden on Wednesday. Looks like I am going to miss the other U-28A (07-0711) and the HC-130N (93-2106 which, rumour has it, is doing its last mission before going to the boneyard). Still, I have made 5, so am pleased with that. |

Not a bad couple of days, by any means!
Safe trip home, weather is pretty nasty down this way.

Yes, the weather could have been a lot better on the trip home, but it has cleared up now.
Only one movement before I left:-
Mildenhall Departure 10.07z VELCRO4 11-9358
And, yes, the other U-28A plus the HC-130N are due in this evening (and are on their way). |
