Hi,

All eleven of these flew right over my house but only saw two of them because of this weather we sometimes get here in Scotland. Does anyone have an exact date for their return so I can prepare to successfully miss them again?

Regards all

Does anyone now the day's that they will fly on this exercise? I'm still in Denmark, Thisted and maybe go to this exercise. I already now that the exercises are from 14/5 til 24/5. I presume that they will fly in de weekday's, but do they also fly in the weekends and on 17 an 18 may, because that are holliday's here?

Does this mean that the exercise is also in the weekend or is this only the non military traffic?

from a danish/dutch spotter who lives in danmark:

This is an exercise 24/7 but there are more groups then airforce (marine and landforce) i don't think they fly 24/7

He asked intelligence (voorlichting): they tolld him no flying at 18/19may
but the field is open for militair traffic!(probebly transport) and also in the weekends.

Increased military flying activity from 10 May till 31 May daily from 12.30-15.30 Local time except weekends and holidays. This one is for the TLP

http://www.slv.dk/Dokumenter/dscgi/ds.p ... A07_en.pdf

The above AIP Supplement, addition to the regular AIP information, states that there will be increased military activity 07-11 MAY daily 1030-1330, 14-24 MAY daily 0700-2200 and 25 MAY-01 JUN daily 1030-1330. Note al the time are UTC so you need to add 2 hours for local time.
TLP will run from 7 May till 01 June and Noble Award from 14 till 24 May.

More info about noble award can be found in the link below

http://www.nobleaward.dk/Deploying%20Units.html

Nothing special was found in the NOTAM's of Aalborg or Hohn. Hope this helps. It looks like there will be no flying activity for the excercise during the weekend and holidays.

Aalborg is also a civil airport maybe that's also the reason the airport is open during weekends.

Since this week i hear the fighters flying over Thisted(1,5 hour driving from Aalborg to the west), today(thursday the 17th) they wouldn't fly because it is a holliday. Tomorow i heard a F-16 coming over, does this mean that they are flying today or did i hear some F-16 from somewhere else?
