Any news on where the Romanians are departing from towards Fairford? Hoping to catch them on for instance Brogel or Beauvechain today.

[hvaneupen]

Romanians seem to be going through Nörvenich according to Flugzeugforum.

The Turks are due tomorrow circa 1330.

Probably due, but looking shaky I've heard.

They are arriving today at 13.50 according to the sheet of lies.

Only one Finnish F-18 (HN-428), second due tomorrow.

RAF Typhoons were: ZK343, ZK425, ZJ913 & ZJ924.

Yippee ZJ913 has always eluded me
Hornet is a good one too. Rebuilt as it was damaged once.

Ahhhh is this the one that was welded together with the front section of another Hornet?

No I think you will find that is HN-468

I recall that in previous years the Turkish KC-135 hasn't hung around but has departed pretty quickly. I assume that's also going to be the case this year - but note there is no departure slot on the schedules that have been posted..?

The KC-135 was visible from my house with 1 F-4 trailing. the KC-135 turned back to germany, not being allowed to overfly the Netherlands, I don't know about the F-4s, but I think they continued.

edit: they turned south and will continue via Belgian airspace, as the Turkish air force is still prohibited in dutch airspace
