Leeuwarden F-16s to be based at Volkel around wk 34/35

Post by Stefan »

Hi,

Due to runway maintenance at Leeuwarden, 11 F-16s from Leeuwarden are expected to operate from Volkel around week 34/35. No exact details known yet. Could be one week op ops at Volkel only.

Regards,
Stefan

Week 34 has been confirmed today, the second week is only if problems with repairs occur and they need some more time to finish the job.

On monday you can ad the J-015 and J-623 to the list returning from Bournemouth and maybe the N-321 as this one has to return from St. Stephan air show.
