What are the spotting conditions at helicopter base Sedlec, Vícenice in Namest nad Oslavou?
Anyone willing to share experience over here?

Fine for spotting, south of Rwy should give you a good view from both ends.
Just use common sense looking at arial maps and you'll fimd a spot pretty close to the hinds as well

Anyone knows if finally, the B-52 will join the excercise? And in case of that, where they will be based?
Thanks, greetings from Spain!!

That's great! Moron is a good place to base the BUFF's. It was his base for the Cold Response a months ago. Thanks for the info,

Can anyone confirm this?

Als je de Tsjechische pagina's een beetje leest (en vertaald), zie je dat er bar weinig vanaf Namest vliegt. Hongaren vliegen vanaf eigen veld (met grippens), AH-64s vliegen vanaf ander veld, GAF Tornado's vliegen vanuit Duitsland en idd de Roemenen zijn gecancelled.....

Iets met jammer....

Please keep in mind it's English here (not a mod, but I know they don't like dutch :-p )

4 Polish Su-22s should fly out of Namest.
