A Swedish Gripen should have visited Bodo today (25th), while a Belgian F16 and a Mildenhall KC135 should have visited Rovaniemi.

QID200 KC-135R 60-0355 went in that direction this morning and hasn't returned (as far as I know). This tanker is fitted with MPRS pods - which will please the probe & drogue refuelling requirement of some participants.

Cheers,

TARBOX87 F18x2 planned into ENGM (Gardermoen) from EGUL (Lakenheath) on 22.10
TARBOX95 F18x3 planned into ENGM from EGUL on 22.10

However, only 4 of these jets made it on this date, which should be,

166631 AB-106 VFA-11 TARBOX85
166808 AB-204 VFA-211 TARBOX86
166820 AB-300 VFA-136 TARBOX87
166839 AB-411 VFA-81 TARBOX88

166665 AB-210 VFA-211 remains on the ground at Lakenheath.

It is highly likely the 2 C-2As on the USS Harry S Truman are operating from Gardermoen.
