You have most probably got the KC-130T wrong. 162311/QH-2311 was the only 'QH' C-130 parked north side at 1100 this morning with no sign of 163023. I did hear it later doing an engine run so it is still present. Also, the Turkish C-130 is marked 73-0991 and has been for a few months.

I only saw 1 C130 parked between the 2 B1s, it looked like it was marked QH but wasnt 100% sure.

Can anybody tell me if im correct with the C130 163023 which was between the 2 B1s??

Many Thanks

If it was 2330 then it was 162311/QH, 163023 had been moved to the other side of the runway by then. It followed its' engine run with a 20 min test flt. as Ranger72 then returned to Charlie and is currently next to its' squadronmate.

James, when I got there this morning 162311 was the only one where the B1s were, 163023 did an engine run but not seen but did a short flight this afternoon and taxied out from the south side where the based stuff is.

Ahh right, Many thanks chaps!

So 162311 was the one over by the B1 area but there was another C130 parked over the other side near/ or on the hot ramp.


Many Thanks

James,

162311/QH was the one that was parked between the B-1's all day today (Saturday) on the Northern side of the runway .
The Turkish stars Herk (73-991) was parked to the South of the runway, and parallelling the runway facing North/West.
163023 was parked further South from the Turkish stars Herk, but as already mentioned this took off as "RANGER 72" at 14:28 on a 20 minute test flight. This then returned, landed and parked next to 162311/QH.

163023 said he has permission to depart during quiet hours tomorrow (Sunday) at 09:00.

Hope that clears it up for you.
Graham
