Rwy surface Notam RWY 27/09 SURFACE CONDITION IS CONCRETE WET ASPHALT WET WITH
NO STANDING WATER. 02 NOV 07:00 2023 UNTIL 02 NOV 18:00 2023.
Suggests they be back before 7pm based on the Notam times

More likely before 1800L as we are now on GMT/ZULU
I suspect we might see a repeat of the situation last week , with Black01 returning around the same time as the B1s as they track back via the Baltic.

As an update...........BLACK01 about 2 hours out , so I was wrong about the contemporaneous return.
