Hi,

At least two days, the tlp is not flying:
EBFS AIRBASE CLOSED DUE TO SOCIAL EVENT 'ST ELOI'. 30 NOV 07:30 2007 UNTIL 30
NOV 16:30 2007. CREATED: 07 NOV 08:04 2007

EBFS AIRBASE CLOSED DUE TO SOCIAL EVENT. 14 NOV 07:30 2007 UNTIL 14 NOV 16:30
2007. CREATED: 07 NOV 08:02 2007

So 14th and 30th no flying.

Damm if you just planned a trip for the 30th...

Sorry... thought it started one week earlier. But still shitty if you just plan to go the 30th (as we did)....

Does it mean that there will be nothing to see in EBFS these days? Or will they depart earlier and return later?

I planned to go in the last week 10/12-14/12, pref. thu 13/12..

Hi,

Times are zulu. So they will depart Florennes, then fly into france and land after mission at Florennes. They very often have notams like these for the target area(s).
