Saw that too, was that it, no planes at all? Looked a bit miserable for a flyover.

I thought it made sense given that helicopters do much more of the emergency services type jobs

What I felt was comical was that a few of the loonies protesting though it was the "military getting involved" in monitoring their assembly.

(I really need to stop lurking in those social media conspiracy groups, but it just so funny)

I had a friend who knows I’m an avgeek txt me at the start of restrictions when ILS calibration was being done at the airport by that waspy sounding Diamond, asking if it was the army monitoring people because the street was out watching it convinced that’s what it was haha!

3 air corps PC12's crossing Canada on way back to Europe.

The 3 new Air Corps Pilatus PC12s are en route from the US. They're doing short legs, yesterday the flew from Denver to Burlington in Vermont. Today's leg took them to Goose Bay in Newfoundland, Canada.

You can search for them using:

N280NG
N281NG
N282NG

Tomorrow's leg is from Goose Bay to Reykjavik.

Will they be keeping their tail numbers after arrival? i.e. 280, 281, 282?

Growler!!!

Is 280 not taken already?

ozzy jr

FR24 has them down as 2 years old. Is the Air Corps not the first owner?

kub

Are the Air Corp doing the delivery of these planes ?

L1011

Weren't they built in 2018 as civils and then sent to the US for the military conversion/fitout; hence the 2018 civil registrations

They were going to take 280, 281, 282 but the fourth one bought in a hurry has already taken 280 so it'll be 281-3. Presumably just renumber "280" of the new ones to 283

In the (highly recommended, by me!) book Fate is the Hunter they used Narsarsuaq in Greenland as a stop over during the war. It’s ICAO code is BGBW. BG for Greenland, BW for “Bluie West One”, its code name way back when.

Fascinating trip, I’d say.

The Blue Spruce Routes still exist!

A fresh coat of paint will do that:)

Man Vs ManUre

A few years ago we never imagined you could open your phone and it tell you what plane in the sky above you is, it’s model and where it is traveling to. This app is really good but when will it tell me who is on board and what they look like??

I was referring more to the factory green colour before the lovely new paint job.

L1011

They would have been delivered to the US in the green.

The aircraft are built in Switzerland not the US.

Trebor176

The three PC12s are on their way to Iceland now.

Appear to be heading back to Baldonnel now

nomdeboardie

Ah, so that's what flew over S Dublin a few minutes ago

Captain_Crash

Caught a glimpse of them myself

Tenger

Was in Tallahht village earlier. They looked class going overhead in formation at about 1000 ft. (-ish)
Got a similar pic. 3 dark aircraft against flat grey clouds.

kmart6

Well that's a few weeks of disruption ahead for any of us living near Baldonnel!:(

Some serious noise from them earlier when they flew over.

GBX

Looking forward seeing them in action in around Baldonnell

Mav11

Have we got four of these now? The original one plus these three?
