Surprise arrival of C-27A 90-0174 at  Patrick
````````````````````````````````````````````
It is Thur, 8:28pm  EDT (Fri, 0028z).
Moments ago C-27A (Alenia Spartan) 90-0174 (c/n  4101) landed at Patrick AFB, 
using the callsign N2290J. This is one of the  aircraft of the Dept of State 
Air Wing that is based here (Dept of State Bureau  of International Narcotics 
& Law Enforcement Affairs). The last time I saw  this aircraft here was in 
March 2001. After that it was seen in Peru in Aug 2001  at Jorge Chavez IAP in 
Lima, and later was among the old State Dept aircraft at  AMARC.  If planes 
could talk, this plane certainly would tell some  interesting stories.  I hope to 
get a picture of her tomorrow.
