The Spanish army people who are exercising in the Marnewaard area are returning home this week.
Thursday 6/9
2x Spanish C-130 09.30 / 10.00 Z RON

Friday 7/9
1 Spanish C-295 11.00 Z

Pity the T17 is not coming back.

Leeuwarden refuses to open on that day, so they first would go to Eelde and this has now changed to Soesterberg.
A Hunter crewchief also mentioned that some other participants would fly from SSB, so i thought Breitling team.

Hunter is flying from Soesterberg and probably also Team Breitling .

These kind of exercises take normally between 1 and 2 weeks, last year they arrived 8/9 and departed 16/9 (via Eelde because it was weekend).
So a good guess is that they will leave next week friday or saturday.
Just heard they start playing allready tomorrow.

The B707 was the T17-3 / 47-03 and it had indeed personnel onboard for an exercise in the Marnewaard area starting next week.

Is there any news about the Florennes F16's coming to Beauvechain?

Second F16 making a low pass should be J-868 (+ J-510), both Leeuwarden QRA aircraft

3 Hawks arrived today: XX221, XX332 and XX346 all 19 sqn markings.
332 and 346 made an afternoon mission around 15.00.

The departure time for the Springfield F16's is set at noon on monday, but it could also be later in the afternoon.

The Norwegian Viper was the 664.

So far this week 6 Vipers are identified for the delivery flight to Springfield as they all flew with 3 external tanks:
J-202, 208, 209, 369, 623 and 882
This means still 2 missing as there will be 6 delivered, but we also need 2 spares.
