Hi all,
As I am in a kind of planning phase for next year and would like to visit CW24-1. Are there any dates known yet?
I know it should be a couple of weeks in March, but like to know exact dates. A search on the WWW came out empty...
Anyone able to help?

Hello!
It should be 4th-22nd March.
Apparently TLG 51 have said themselves they are attending.

Cobra Warrior 24-1 Cancelled.
No details as to why, but the March running of Cobra Warrior has been cancelled.
It is hoped that CW24-2 will still go ahead in September.

Does anyone know the dates for September’s exercise? I’ve had a trawl through the internet but nothing found.

Nothing official yet, but should be either w/c 2nd or 9th September based on previous years.
Let's hope it happens!
The reasons for the March running being cancelled was lack of foreign participants, with only German Tornados on the list to attend, and that Waddington would be busy with other things - what that was I have no idea, there were rumours of Brize stuff coming here during the same period but that never happened.
Hopefully the Germans want to come in September, there are also rumours of F-16s to Mildenhall or Lakenheath again.

Could the reds buildup training be the reason why waddington would be too busy? Speaking to a local farmer last year and he mentioned that the reds were unhappy with the amount of visitors for cobra warrior as it affected their plans.
