Anyone know why all those canadian c-17's go to cologne/bonn airport?

It's their transport-hub between Canada and the Canadian missions in the Middle-East. Cologne-Bonn has almost no night-flying limitations, so ideal for them.

[OscarM]

I thought it's some sort of logistical point in Europa for the Canadian Air Force. Years ago there was a Canadian C-17 visiting Eindhoven AB to see if Eindhoven was suitable for this but i guess not because they still go to Koln-Bonn and use it as there 'hup' enroute to further destinations.
