KC-135 + 3 F-16's overhead DUS yesterday (pic)

Post by Polecat »

Hi

I was in Düsseldorf yesterday afternoon, and saw this formation overhead, a|KC-135 and three F-16's!
Just out of curiosity, could anyone provide more info on this flight like what airforce the F-16's were of?

If it is Quid66 it means F-16's belongs to Belgium.

Yesterday afternoon KC-135 58-0100 was logged in the area, together with multiple Belgium F-16's. (FA-87, FA-89, FA-91, FA-109, FA-99, FB-24, FB-14 and FA-126). So it's safe to say you saw some of these, for what it's worth.
