Have the last of the Ohio's arrived from Amari or are they yet to arrive? Also, is it known how long they will operate from Spangdahlem?

Can't tell for sure, i can say that this morning at 08.30 about 10 USAF F16's were airborne over the Eifel including at least 2 OH (from ex codes).
On FF Adrian and others are posting daily pictures of the OH F16's. So you will have a good chance tomorrow.

Is it already known when the OH F-16's will be leaving next week?

[Erik-Jan Engelen]

For what it its worth, this was what took place yesterday (13 March 2018):

1st wave started to return to base from 9:15 hrs local time onward. In total 12x 480th FS (SP) and 6x 112th FS (OH).
2nd wave started to depart from base from 11:10 hrs local time onward. In total 12x 480th FS (SP). Not sure when they returned since we moved to Ramstein in between 2nd & 3rd wave
3rd wave started to depart from base from 16:10 hrs local time onward. In total 12x 480th FS (SP) and 5x 112th FS (OH).
After this departure we left back home to The Netherlands. According to some local spotters the previous flying days a fourth mission took place from approx 9:00 pm local time.

Any idea what's the story on the other OH Falcons ? Still broken? After this amount of ops, sure some down days will follow... Hopefully departure from the OH will be next week or later...

[Jovel]

Yesterday, at the fence, they told me departure
OH F-16's Friday the 16th. 3 OH's are still at Amari.

did they also told you how late ?

[Jovel]

Nope, Leonard. The 3 Amari OH's were expected to arrive at SP yesterday but they were delayed again. So I really don't know how reliable this departure info is.

[BirdieBarty]

The last 3 arrived last night from Amari.
