Tikaboo Tales

Here is the link to work to the official diagram in the paper from Lincoln Labs showing N105TB's bolt-ons. N105TB the cruise missile chaser

N20NY has been out and about locally last week.

Thanks to a curious N105TB spotter: N105TB was at CMH (Port Columbus) on 21-Dec-05 at 1700. I'm not sure how it managed to fly back east from Groom undetected; it doesn't appear as 'BLOCKED' in any of the flight trackers. Anyhow, it obviously managed to get out of CMH for BED in time for the festive season having engaged the cloaking device as its departure and arrival also remain untracked. Anyone know the callsign it used on this trip?

N105TB obviously did make it home for the holidays as it's now airborne heading west from BED to Springfield, IL.

Well during a spot of post-Xmas surfing I've found a good reference from 2000 which explains some of the lumps n bumps on N105TB N105TBs lumps 'n' bumps And also airliners.net has a photo of N105TB arriving sensor-less at Tulsa on 14-Jun-05. Either my tracking program is no longer detecting N105TB or it's still at Groom. This I find a bit odd as it would normally go home for Christmas. Perhaps it's been mounted on a plinth at the entrance to the base

N105TB is going West to Groom Lake today, routeing BED-Des Moines-Williams Gateway-DRA.
