Anyone able to see if these four stealth jets are leaving for home this Friday the 11th per chance :?:

"Mid-September" is a rather loose term, and if the boys and gals want to be home for the weekend... :roll:

Wouldn't mind them staying in Europe till Friday the 18th of September or even later, though. Anyone with good indications/information/"well informed rumours" :?:

To be more serious :
They arrived on Friday 28th, they did not fly on Saturday and Sunday.
2 a/c made a "visit" to Poland on Monday 31st
2 a/c flew at SP on 1st, 2nd and 3rd
On 4th 2 Raptors flew to Estonia.
5th, 6th and 7th were no-fly days.
It means that, during a period of 11 days, they only made 5 training missions.

It is my own deduction, without any further official information, but I would be surprised that they leave this Friday, even if they make 3 more missions on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday...
Let's see... This week should be sunny with Eastern wind ... :cool:
