After the unusual direct flight USA – Benghazi of yesterday, this night we’ve tracked a new USAF flight to Benghazi (this time departed from Ramstein AFB, Germany).

The USAF Boeing C-17A (callsign RCH223, reg. 09-9205) left Ramstein at 22:05 CEST and follow the usual route followed by previous flights to Libya (northern Italy, Tyrrhenian Sea).

As yesterday,  the aircraft disappeared from all tracking site around 23:47 CEST over southern Tyrrhenian sea when it flew southbound.

The aircraft should have landed in Benghazi around 01:30 CEST.

We don’t have a complete track of the return flight. The aircraft is apperared again when it left Italian air space at 05:15 CEST.

Considering the flight times the plane should have remained in Benghazi, about 1 hour and a half, time compatible with previous visits.

The Globemaster, landed in Ramstein AFB at 06:06 CEST, is now in flight to the USA.

  • It is really unusual for US Air Force heavy traffic C17 air crafts Taking a command order to their destination
    ( Benghazi Libya ) so far two different times in two different days .
    What is the urgency ?
    I am assuming that The flight durations and missions were to pick up chemical weapons, or other dangerous material left over sense “ Gadafi’s Time in power in Libya
    How ever, I strongly believe that the American Will not support “ Heftr“ militarily “ directly , precisely on this time .
    Therefore those two heavy aircraft were sent to Benghazi to ( pick up not to deliver )
    This is my conclusion

  • Here is the UN appointed and internationally recognized gov see what the west is supporting now the corona is here the US strategy has to change radically or exporting corona to Europe will continue by these thugs and criminals belonging to such incompetent gov 2011 was the biggest mistake driven by Sarkozi to hide his involvement in Gaddafi 50 million election bribe and the stupidity of the west thinking that terror is apart of Islam so let Muslims kill each other why spend our money and sons to do it. Terror is an apedemic just like corona everyone has to do their part.
