Wie wat waar vliegt daar - 2022 MIL

[patrick dirksen]

Maybe the Growlers that were at Spang earlier? Weren't there five of those? Or is that wishful thinking...?

[michel N]

Most likely the Hornets that are/were based at Lask? As the Gold KC-46 went to the east of Germany to pick up the fighters.

[patrick dirksen]

I am told they were F/A-18s from VMFA-312, these were indeed based at Lask after participating in Cold Response. Any serials known? Here's hoping

[Ajaxfever]

Clearly visible indeed, both Gold as the chicks. Any info on the fighters would be very welcome obviously.

I was informed tomorrow same NOTAM so can the other 5 VMFA-312 Hornets with KC-46 be expected over NL. Todays 5 went VIA UK to Lajes.

Other overhead Enschede today:
12.17LT RCH808 08-8192
15.16lt Gold31 with 5x USMC Hornet
18.15lt IAC282 PC-12 to Rotterdam
18.58lt 59-1475 kc-135 Hobo22
20.00lt RRR2741 ZZ343

Heads up: Gold41 (ads-b 15-46009) has just taken off from The Hall. This should be for the second trail of VMFA312 F/A-18s from Lask to Lajes. If it follows the same route as Gold31 yesterday expect it overhead eastbound around 13.45 lt and back westbound with chicks some 2 hours later.

It seemed that Gold41 was on his/her way back above eastern germany.

[David Moore]

Circling at refuelling height, I think, SE of Berlin

[frank kramer]

Which is about the same MO as Gold31 had yesterday... fingers crossed!

[Bennie]

CNV3581 just passed North of Schiphol enroute Belfast-Stuttgart. Visible & audible
ADS-B: 164993.

Is he perhaps flying a more southerly route than yesterday?

[frank kramer]

Just slightly (so far); I'm a bit more concerned about the build-up of clouds over here...

[Ajaxfever]

about to enter dutch airspace near Enschede

[patrick dirksen]

Visible over Deventer, indeed with chicks. No trail today, so more difficult than yesterday.

4 hornets flying with the KC-46, clearly visible.
