Madrid Dias de Hispanidad 12th of October

[rhjo66]

Having been at Madrid today,
I now know possibly why 4 Spanish F18s departed Torrejon, flying over Barajas heading towards the City?

Now if anyone happens to know the serials?!

It seems the location near Bernabeu is not an option anymore, the parade is further down south compared to last year.

Torejon is a good spot, there will be hundreds of people there watching the departures. And the airspares will be there too. Then over to Cuatro for the helicopters.

Last year most of the Typhoons and Hornets flew from their homebases.
AV-8, F-5 will most likely fly from Torrejon however
