But Will they change iT back to 23 for landing?
Depends on the cloudbase when they return, expectation is around 1800ft and then they can still fly VFR, if it goes below 1500ft then we go to IFR and probably 23 again
Cloudbase or ceiling? Or is there no difference for those in MIL Ops?

Possibly to Zagreb just as the C-130H that visited Volkel today. Someone for the numbers of these two?

That makes sense, as Leeuwarden closed down for the weekend immediately after the last aircraft of the afternoon wave had landed
