Thai Airways Star Alliance 744 HS-TGW is back again operating TG471..

The only C-2 Greyhounds logged (by me) were the 2 at SYD on 2nd July 2005.
162169/27 and 162164/26 from the USS Kittyhawk. I have them as C-2A and was wondering when the later 8 bladed props (C-2C?) were introduced.

there may have been more since but I don't recall any.

just a note that a thai 747-400 is in at the moment wearing there special one world livery rego is HS-TGW

Sorry Callum but it's been mentioned and it's the Star Alliance not One World livery.

Pete If I remember correctly there was a C-2 around July 2007 can't remember which SQN but it had the rising sun art work on the tail, very much like the Sundowners scheme they had on there F-14's now F-5's.
Happy to be corrected.

Thanks for that and sorry for the mistake also i noted a c-17 globe master do a low flyover at home bush if anyone can tell me about this because a week ago i saw the same thing over newtown thx

It's the weekly USAF flight into Richmond AFB is was quite low today I noticed it from Sutherland.

callum bain 7th May 2012 05:50 PM

thanks thought it was odd also am i right to say that the usaf used to fly there c-5 galaxy over here or has it always been c-17

callum bain 7th May 2012 05:54 PM

and why does the USAF fly there c-17s here anyway do they have troops here in sydney

Jaryd stock 7th May 2012 06:03 PM

They fly supplies around the place as to why sort dunno troops would be on charter flights from different American Airlines, and I could be wrong but before C-17's, C-141's used to do the run with an occasional C-5/ KC-10-135 doing it but very rarely. We might have to create another thread Callum to discuss further since this is movement thread only....
