Witttmund airbase

Post by Shannon spotter »

Hi all, just a quick question,
Im looking to a possible visit to Wittmund for some F-4F's. Ive done a bit of research with google earth and found 2 airfields near each other one bein at 53°32'50.60" N 7°40'05.55" E and the other at 53°31'57.79" N 7°53'14.89" E.
I belive the first is Wittmund, but whats the other?

Regards,
Dirk.

I wouldn't bother with Jever at all.
Wittmund however is different, especially early September when Turkish F-16's will be taking part in a NATO exercise. Photo opportunities at Wittmund are various and quite good. There are many examples on this board.
