On Friday, there is a planned Elephant Walk with all 24 F-16AMs around 14:15L, with also a departure included.

Correction for new people joining into the topic: This is expected to be 18, not 24 as reported by Menno

Ik heb geen idee waar dat bericht op gebaseerd is, maar 24 kisten is totaal niet realistisch en daarmee niet correct. En SGV is zeker niet de source hiervan.

Just to clarify:

The initiator is 312 Sqn, therefore only F-16.
The term "elephant walk" is not used officially (as far as I am aware) instead it is a "gereedstelling oefening".

This exercise was originally planned in September but obviously delayed.

All except J-003 and J-020 (stayed at the platform); J-021 taxied back after Elephant Walk.
