Nice work, good to see someone caught the Air Berlin (wondered if it arrived or not). I don't think ZZ171 has a problem, more than likely what it's carrying! Seeing as he is vacating foxtrot :ninja:.

Not 100% sure but I think the Typhoon is/was a stress frame? - Maybe one of the locals can confirm..

He did swap his load on to another C17,which departed much later in the day.
