Thanks!!

From all accounts, it is parked on the diamond ramp, near the engine test bay. Apparently not photograph-able as far as I know... your best bet will be on its departure - whenever that is!!

That's correct Dan, it on the left side of the diamond hangar ramp, visible from northside but not photographable I'm afraid.

I've seen one quote of the departure date as 22nd at 08.00 but no other times to confirm or dispute that. If I seen any updates I'll post it here but I will be away from 17th to 20th (although I might be able to get on line at times). also if it moves elsewhwere on the airport between now and then and becomes photographable I'll post it here too.

Nice shots Dan,

I think I read somewhere (may have been the STN group or CS) that she is staying for 6 days then off to ........... & then Vietnam.
