CommentWith all the commotion over Greece we missed Biggles flying in, but here it is over Iraq with an abbreviated CBOW call sign : CW21, about to start a holding pattern West of Erbil as usual. I'm sure there will be some Jetson -- EUFIs -- around too.
An F-35 with NATO tactical codes suddenly appeared ! Although its nearer to a USAF K35R, looking at the tracks, it could be one of the Jetsons that accompanied Biggles in. In any case it's our first F-35 in action !
