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.

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.

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....
