Yes: additional to the four that arrived on Thursday, but replacements for the two that remain at Prestwick (or have they left in the meanwhile?).

But six were due in total, so are these replacements for two of the original six, meaning there are four aircraft to come?

[mac10]

Ahhh! Wasn't aware the original number expected were six. When I enquired of a fellow spectator on Friday as to whether "the four F18's had left yet" he merely told me that two had gone tech and two more were due to replace them after 17:00 today.

Six appears to be the usual number of Hornets that the RCAF keep out in Romania during the deployment.

They have been known to rotate a couple at a time during their stay.
