I've got USAF ADFEB8 - 98-0002 B752 US Mil 2, and AE07E3 - 94-0069 C17 US Mil 1, showing, but no idea where they are or bearing

John,

98-0002 is the same aircraft that was using the c/s Airforce 2 when it landed at Mildenhall Februay 8th. It left the States this morning and is probably carrying the US Secretary of State Hilary Clinton. See my photo here:

Currently on my RB at FL350.

Thanks for that Tom, just found another US Navy AE04D8 165830 Boeing C-40A Clipper US Mil 1.

He took off from Mildenhall about an hour ago and was routing via Brize Norton.

Suspect he came in from Europe, and as I lost him at 8000ft - he may have fuelled at Turnhouse (EGPH) had a sqwark showing origin Geneva region.

I just noticed a AsianaB744 routing over Blackpool usinc callsign AAR587 I never realised they route this far North or is my RB playing up?

I think your RB is probably fine - I've only got four Asiana hits in my 10-month old log - they're pretty rare up here in Lancashire.

EDIT - I've just noticed, Asiana Cargo is a different matter - plenty of them!

Going to be a few interesting Aircraft come the end of this month when the G20 meets.
Would Airforce 1 land at Heathrow?

Here's one now on my box United Nations Learjet 55 D-CMAX 3CDFC7. Rod is this a case for a flag?

This is the first time I've seen a Boeing 777 Freighter on the network:

EDIT - I've been investigating, and I don't think that the code B77F (presumably from GAS) is valid - I think it should just be a B772.

EDIT AGAIN - GAS has it as a B772 - I wonder where "B77F" came from.

RodBearden · « **Reply #447 on:** March 02, 2009, 10:18:42 PM »

John - how do you know that D-CMAX was operating for the UN? According to airframes.org it's operated by FAI Air Service - we've already got a logo for that. Did it have a UN callsign?

Rod

Canonjohns40D · « **Reply #448 on:** March 02, 2009, 10:41:35 PM »

Ahh!!! Nno the loaded picture had UN titles didn't get it on the scanner. A false alarm then?

RodBearden · « **Reply #449 on:** March 02, 2009, 10:52:42 PM »

Well, I'll have to leave it for the moment. Interestingly, the UN doesn't seem to have its own ICAO code, at least according to Airframes.org. Anyone know any different?
