USN P.8's ?

[dave]

hi,
    the USN P.8;s that used to flood down from Prestwick and Reykjavik and we could not tie up very well, have all gone to sunny climes, and the new lot were playing ball by the flt number= serial, so where are they?. I saw 2 on April 23rd swoping over, but none since apart from 2 or 3 reported going north which were to far east for me...

stay safe, regards,
                              dave...

Call sign QEOO5 so looks to have been 169005 which is a VP40 machine & therefore QE coded.
