OK looks like both the B-17 and the Prowler should both be going off shortly
B-17 has left
They're having problems with the GPU @ the Prowler. They're out of here as soon as the get it fired up.
This may be it. The Prowler is moving off the ramp
Prowler is shut down and will be here overnight
This whole week has been a real clusterf*** spotting military aircraft at FRG for me, so why should it end now ??!!:wink: Anyway, I'll try again to catch the Prowler's departure in the morning. BTW, any word about what time ??
For most of the morning they had the Prowler hooked up to some large machine that was trailered over from the main terminal and that seemed to be there area of concentration. Then the GPU problem. Finally they dropped the canopy and started to taxi out when their flight was cancelled due to their route not being approved due to severe weather.
Rumour atthe fence from the crew was anytime tomorrow morning after 6:00AM
What about the Helldiver?
Prowler went wheels up around 8:20am
And so it ends...........................
