Capt. Troy Posted August 2, 2017 Report Share Posted August 2, 2017 OK Gabe/ Hurricane what are they doing? Looks like some new aircraft as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hurricane Posted August 2, 2017 Report Share Posted August 2, 2017 We moved to Lakeland, at Lakeland Linder Airport. The Air Force wanted their hangar back, after N.O.A.A. being there over 20 years. Our relocation went out for bid between Lakeland and Clearwater, Lakeland won. They built a new hangar and were over joyed to have us. Aviation is big at Linder, they have their Sun N Fun air show every year, kinda like the big OshKosh air show. Im not so happy about the move, I live 10 min from Macdill, now a 45 min drive to Lakeland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt. Troy Posted August 3, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 3, 2017 Dang. The should have picked Clearwater. Would have saved you on fuel and the Aircraft for Gulf Missions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hurricane Posted August 4, 2017 Report Share Posted August 4, 2017 The Air Force hurricane group is still there, I work for N.O.A.A. The difference is, the AF does storm reconnaissance/tracking. N.O.A.A. does weather research. We have much more equipment and multiple radar on our aircraft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
