I was there too till 13.00L, no visitors, but at 17.15L I heard jet noise over Brunssum. Someone has the serial?

There was a COLT01 in the neighbourhood around that time which is given as a German Tornado, so was it a Tornado or was it an Eurofighter?

COLT is a EUFI callsign from JG73, and not a Tornado callsign!

Yeah I know what you've said :) . My question indeed wasn't about the callsign, but more about the time the acft visited Geilenkirchen. Too bad i'd left 15 mins too early.
Thank's for the heads up!!
