Does someone know when the french mirages are expected?

Other question. Will the F15's fly some local missions? I believe last year they did.

Given the fact that the Eagles have not arrived on Wednesday it might be less likely that they do this. However, if part of the exercise is to deploy 'hot' then the day after the arrival (if that is Thursday, that is), some missions could be flown. Time will tell.

You can bet there are already eagle drivers at Ljouwert.

Why not? Is it then possible the Eagles arrive in the weekend? UK for example?

Saw the nine numbers on milspotters. All Eufi's are onboard. So are the six UK Tornado's.

Only missing participants are the US F-15's, belgian F-16's, portugese F-16's and some dutch F-16's from Volkel.

With the notam active, it seems they will arrive. That is if they have more luck than the last few days...
Otherwise they may better cancel and head on directly to their next destination...

zoals het er nu uit ziet vertrekken ze vandaag, het weer ziet er gunstig uit.
Het enige wat nog roet in het eten kan gooien zijn de tankers, hopelijk geen technische problemen
