Post by Joostmil »

As several USAF C-17 arrivals were postponed, expect two C-17's to visit Leeuwarden today. Also on the 19th and 21st C-17's are expected to visit Leeuwarden.

Yes...other 6 Eagles will arrive today, as everything goes well that is. They had a 24hrs delay due to problems on departure the 15th.

ROMA92, KC-135T 58-0055, is in the currently airborne list since at least 0730Z, yet at an altitude of 800 ft so probably still on the ground.

Is there any proof that ROMA91-92 and TREND51-56 have actually taken off?

Good chance they are delayed until Monday if you ask me. Will be better weather conditions at Leeuwarden next week anyway. 8)
