To update everyone on this thread. There are no Planning Days during CW23-2, everyday is scheduled as an exercise day and so expect CW missions everyday throughout the exercise. I have this info directly from RAF Waddington. So not guesswork or a rumour.

The report for Air Defender 23 is now on the website. Two weeks of intense action over northern Europe, involved a large contingent of U.S Air National Guard units deploying to Germany for the duration. Click on the link to view the action http://www.jetwashaviationphotos.com/ai ... -2023.html

Nice images mate. You three must stop following me about though!

Thanks for sharing these, absolutely stunning selection of shots and hard to pick any favourites, they're all great. Interesting to note that the Frogfeet both have some sort of victory markings displayed. [/quo I believe they are from missions conducted during the war with Armenia over the Nagorno...

It covers my visit to the US Forest Service at Fox Tanker Base, Lancaster, California.

Scramble just seem to post updates from Fighter Control from the previous day. They do. Scramble really know no more than anyone else, and having a few long-held Dutch friends (one of whom 'works' at Scramble), trust me, they have a habit of just copying stuff from elsewhere! Don't be fooled into t...

Choose 'Select Sky' Then on the sliders select 'Temp' and move to the left until you are happy with the colour (I used -...

I would also like to know for sure if anything is happening. Thanks Mike Green for your message. Is Sirio 2002 an alternative exercise? If the tanker exercise is still taking place on Lanzarote then surely they will need some aircraft to refuel. Might have to cancel hotel & rebook flights if nothin...
