Florida/Oregon ANG F15's

Post by Phil » Fri Apr 24, 2015 8:25 am

AF Times today quotes:

Twelve F-15s, which arrived at The Netherland's Leeuwarden Air Base this month, will head to Bulgaria next.

Air Force spokesman Jerry Renne said the F-15s and about 220 airmen accompanying the aircraft mostly hail from the Florida and Oregon National Guard.

"They will move forward in parts or pieces throughout the six months, to England to Norway, and there will be more," Roberson said.

Not totally unexpected.

The two broken JZ Eagles have arrived at Lakenheath. The Florida/Oregon ones are still in Bulgaria I think.

They were with London Mil this morning, around Clacton, having departed Bulgaria, they were heading for Lakenheath.
I've no idea which aircraft and units were involved, though FANG is a callsign used by the Florida ANG.
I can't confirm if they landed at Lakenheath. I was curious if they'd been visually confirmed

Think you just need to know if any one knows the whereabouts of,
86-162 which is a good question as has not been seen since arrival.
