Two French AF Alpha Jets were noted arriving at BAL around 1630 on Thursday and they departed around 1030 on Friday morning.
Callsigns were FAF6443 & FAF6444.

Can anyone provide the aircraft serials/codes or better still some photos?

Also seen departing this morning was the US Coast Guard Gulfstream 5 '01'.  This had originally arrived on Wednesday night - was it hangared for its stay?

I'd love to have access at BAL to get the photos as its almost impossible from around the perimeter roads.

It was the busiest day for visitors to BAL in a long time with a French Nord 262 and Xingu also arriving on Friday.

Some of the French visitors (nords) presumably have something to do with the upcoming Chad mission.

Interesting stuff.

Maybe they might be nice enough to provide us a Cougar or six...
