Do you have an actual source that confirms this or is it just speculation?roberto wrote: ↑25 Jul 2023, 19:52At FF they want all pilots to brief and debrief together, so everything is flying from EHLW (no covid restrictions anymore)Zonan wrote: ↑25 Jul 2023, 13:06Note that the list does not say they all operate from leeuwarden. Could easily be that those ITAFs operate from Laage, US likely from Lakenheath, danish from skrydstrup, and then you're not left with a lot for LwdPolleke_NL wrote: ↑24 Jul 2023, 20:37 Today I received intel that - apparently - the following could be expected to participate;
RNLAF F-35 12 + spare
RNLAF F-16 4 + spare
BAF F-16 8
GAF EF2000 8
RDAF F-16 4
FINAF F-18 3
ITAF F-35 5
US F-35 4
UK Navy F-35B 4 (week 2)
Whereas ITAF appears to be a little unclear as they have a deployment to Laage as well during that same period......

Re: Frisian Flag 2023
Do you have a source that they will operate from their homebase? Or is it just speculation?
als je doet wat je deed, krijg je wat kreeg.
Re: Frisian Flag 2023
Volgens mij doet het er niet toe wat wel of niet vliegt vanaf Leeuwarden. Het zal opnieuw gezellig druk worden met spotters in die periode rondom Leeuwarden. Begin Oktober weten we wat wel is gearriveerd en zijn alle 'speculaties' beantwoord .

Roberto is for long a respected forum member who's information has proved to be true many times.
As far as I know he is also 'close to the fire' which makes (t)his info even more valueable.

Re: Frisian Flag 2023
Nou niet helemaal, er zijn mensen die de keuze moeten maken om wel of niet ergens heen te gaan omdat ze niet onbeperkt tijd hebben. Ik vind het dus wel degelijk belangrijk om te weten wat er vanaf Leeuwarden vliegt tijdens FF.

Er zijn altijd wijsneuzen die denken dat ze het beter weten, het is maar net wie je wilt geloven

Re: Frisian Flag 2023 speculation
It is beginning to look more and more like an F-35-only exercise... in a few years time, when the Danish, Finnish and German AF add their F-35's it will be even more so...

Re: Frisian Flag 2023 speculation
Dat er steeds meer F-35's meedoen vind ik niet meer dan logisch, alleen is het aantal buitenlandse deelnemers net als vorig jaar nogal beperkt. Echte knallers ontbreken dit keer helaas...

Re: Frisian Flag 2023 speculation
Dat is nogal subjectief: voor mij zouden de F-35B toch écht wel knallers zijn.....

Re: Frisian Flag 2023 speculation
En voor mij de Deense F-16’s, aangezien het de allerlaatste keer zal zijn waarschijnlijk. Terwijl de F-35’s langer mee zullen gaan dan ikzelf.
Zo vindt iedereen weer iets anders leuk.

Nog niet eerder tweezitters gezien.
Re: Frisian Flag 2023 speculation
F-35B is geen tweezitter, maar de V/STOL variant
