[Full HD/1920px] ZJ994 is seen rolling into its parking position on apron Tango for a night stop, having arrived from Royal Naval Air Station Yeovilton (YEO/EGDY) via Rennes (RNS/LFRN), Bilbao (BIO/LEBB) and León (LEN/LELN), along with ZJ137 and ZJ998. This trio of guests belong to the 846 Naval Air Squadron and thanks to a two-hour delay I could catch them in gorgeous evening light. They will join the Portuguese Air Force 751 Squadron based in Montijo AB (LPMT) for a joint military exercise.
