"Snapshot01"

Post by tomed »

Picked up this tonight at 20-46. Snapshot01 calling kinloss operations saying they were inbound. Am i right in thinking Snapshot 01 is the callsign for a Sentinel R-1? Are this aircraft based at kinloss?

Have a look here, certainly there are Sentinel R1 aircraft using Snapshot callsigns

Yes SNAPSHOT is a callword used by the 'Sentinel'.
They are normally based at Waddington though currently at Cranwell whilst the runway is being upgraded at Waddo.
