Volkel in the grey - Vipers and Tonkas 15-16 Oct 19

[slogen51]

Ok only two Italian Tornados on a damp grey day at Volkel but luckily for me MM7086 made an appearance. I didnt know beforehand that I was visiting Volkel so didnt have my steps with me therefore the ground shots are taken straight through the fence

Beautiful sunshine before the rain on the 16/10

Thanks

I remember chatting

I didn't mean to listen in but I could hear your conversation with your friends and the only words I could understand were the occasional 'Hamilton' , 'Vettel' , ' Mercedes' etc

Nice set Mike. Exercise is called "Steadfast Noon". It's a nuclear exercise hence the orange visor covers to indicate of carrying weapons.

Cheers,
Ranger

Hi Mike,

Great to see you went to Volkel and were successful in catching MM7086. I enjoyed seeing your pictures of the excercise at Volkel.
It was nice meeting you at Eindhoven.
