My log for this day. I was there between 9.30 and 15.21. Probably I missed some F-16's because around 14:50 we drove from the west to the eastside and saw some F-16's departing and could not read them.

I am curious about the serials of the missing C-17 and C-5M. The C-5M was standing on the platform. Please who can complete the list

Marco, you didn't miss a C-17. Your C-5M is 87-0045 436th AW.

Thx adraf for the serial of the C-5M. Was there also a mission in the evening

And I also heared a rumour that people were fined by the police at the east side because of parking on a place that was not allowed. Is that rumour correct

Between 1840 and 1850 another 4 F35s departed. At that moment policr came to the dirt road at the eastern side. Everyone who parked there got a 50 euro fine.
