Atari 81 came in first, I only heard Emperor 01/03 and only saw two from Home, but there was also Emperor 02 - at least one of Emperor did a go around.

Hopefully someone is there when they depart, and they depart using the same callsigns....

The F-15s are parked on bays 19-21 due to having chaff/flairs (and are effectively armed) - down the far end, one dispersal up from where the Israelis were in 2019.
