Panther11-14 4 F-15s should have arrived here early this morning from LN.

Would be very nice if any of our Italien spotters could give an overview from AV.

Very wise! We should not post anything on these forums that might endanger the lives of our pilots.
From the Balkan conflict we learned how valuable information from "spotters" can be.

Is that a '' throw away '' remark or do you have examples ? BTW I have upmost respect for Maurizio , he posts regularly and he has to keep his homebase contacts happy,so it's fully understood from him.

If my memory serves me right you may be referring to the F117 Nighthawk which was downed after information leaked from within NATO about its intentions......

Not just the F117. Communications on cell phones were intercepted, indicating that there were people who transmitted info on the exact times and numbers of the planes taking off. Based on that info the Serbians could predict quite well when the planes (and how many) would arrive, which was very valuable info to their air defence.

So I am just saying: "be careful, don't give the opposite site info they can use against our pilots".
