I've heard that the closing celebrations will take place Thurs 29th and Fri 30th March. The info is not as specific as i would of liked but taking part are Czech Gripens and German Tornados as well as most aircraft types / squardrons from the French Airforce . The PDF should also be there. Arrivals start Thursday morning but there are also arrivals Friday although I don't know what. Maybe others in the know could shed some light ?

I have read something that this day the squadron will receive their first Rafale and then, indeed, move to Saint Dizier.
Some flight pasts are expected.
