Update on volcanex 2014...I have been looking for info and the Volcanex website states that the Exercise will be hosted by RAF Regiment at RAF Honington but will take place "NEAR" RAF Leeming and not "AT" Leeming...so I suppose we will hae to wait and see in October

regards

I predict Topcliffe will be used as a rogue state with a fair sized group of troops to protect it from hostiles

From 4 October until 17 October 2014 the exercise as of Volcanex will take place near the British Air Base (RAF) Leeming in North Yorckshire.
Volcanex is a European Air Group exercise (EAG) focusing on tactical interoperability. It is designed to test, validate and refine EAG products.
In order to reach this goal, EATC prepared specific types of aircraft to come into effect on EATC-coordination work. Several aircraft of the EATC assigned wings are also involved in different tactical scenarios.
Another aim of the exercise is to succeed in several missions, where military deployments rescue and/or evacuate people in a multinational approach. The chain of survival always in focus, participants are prepared for the worst: In various settings and locations it is necessary to make intensive medical treatments to serious injured as well as to evacuate and airlift people out of the endangered areas. In order to accomplish specific standards in cross-national Aeromedical Evacuation (AE), it is the EATC’s Aeromedical Evacuation Control Center (AECC) to take over a decisive role within this area of responsibility.
