This morning 2 French Alpha jets landed at Koksijde.

FAF6410 E-17/314-LW
FAF6411 E-102/314-LM

Does anybody has a ETD?

Hi,

All three are coming back from Arizona, USA (via BZN of course) after an out of area exercise which allowed 1 Regt aircrews to prepare themselves to be send out again to the war-theater.

Info was obtained today during a base-visit from Aviation Society Panoravia at Gütersloh/Princess Royal Barracks.

PS. I believe ZG196 to be ZG916

Best rgds,

Sjoerd

AAC145Formation delayed. New ETD 14:15LT

Formation consists of only 2 Lynx (ZG-885, ZG-916) helicopers instead of 3.

Route to Gutersloh via Woensdrecht, Gilze rijen & Volkel

It were indeed only ZG885 and ZG916. They arrived at 12h40lt, and departed again at 13h10lt. Do you have news from the 3rd one?

Otto · Post by **Otto** » 11 Apr 2008, 21:12

No news on the 3rd one Wim. If there's any news I'll post it here.

Hi Wim,

According to the flightplan info AAC145C Lynx (ZE-376) arrived yesterday (11/4) Plan was to depart at 16:00LT, however the flightplan was cancelled......so it must be there?

For today (12/4) you can expect:

AAC705/AAC731 2x Gazelle AAC. Gazelles are enroute to Bruggen (ETUR) Gazelles departed at 12:49LT from Lydd and filed their route via Koksijde
