Red Flags Nellis in 2012

[Hans Antonissen]

Here is a list of the 2012 flags at Nellis.

RED FLAG 12-1: 01/23/2012 - 02/03/2012
RED FLAG 12-2: 02/27/2012 - 03/16/2012
RED FLAG 12-3: 07/16/2012 - 07/27/2012
RED FLAG 13-1: 10/08/2012 - 10/19/2012

For the first flag there will be a mediaday on 1 feb., most interesting participants are Korean and Saudi F-15's. Other stuff will be HL, CO and ED F-16's , MA, JZ F-15's, EL B-1's and the regular support like E3 and KC-135.

The july Flag is supposed to have the Columbian Kfirs which were originally planned for the cancelled 2011 october flag.

Still in doubt whether to go or not, airline tickets are pretty cheap this time of year....
Grtz,

It's unlikely that the 131FS from Barnes will be there in February as they are there now!

Indeed, seems pretty much the same list as current red flag, so might be a mistake overthere (happened before).
