1235- Fixit 19 (E-4B # 74-0787) land at ADW

There was a C-32 of some sort, sorta flying along with the E-4B. It was a one-time type callsign so probably a C-32B. I think it came out of Patuxent. It was in the lead heading west. The E-4B turned back sooner. The C-32 returned to ADW.


N8300G FATMAN86 SOCOM DHC-8-300 was operating around Harrisonburg today.

Fyi, end of an era for the RAF, I have a feeling this decision will be regretted --

Usually the C-32s are # 09-0015-09-0018 since they are outfitted with the same comms suite as AF1

According to the video, on the Forces TV channel on YT, they are going to sell the planes. The A-400 is taking the place of the C-130s, but there are concerns of potential capability differences.
