I think windy conditions only matter if the mission is planned over water and the sea state is too high.Will they fly tomorrow, because it will storm?

Re: IDF-AF to excersise in Germany #bluewings2020
Just rumours but along the fence some Germans were commenting there wouldn’t be any flying tomorrow, and only one Israeli mission on Thursday morning before packing up and leaving around 06:30L Friday morning....
So who knows what will happen. No official info available as far as I know.

Re: IDF-AF to excersise in Germany #bluewings2020
Please keep in mind that so far all rumours about not flying turned out to be not true.

Re: IDF-AF to excersise in Germany #bluewings2020
Due to the planned storm on 26.8. no flying or one mission only could be possible.

I don't think anyone 'planned' a storm, but thanks for the infoHerby wrote:Due to the planned storm on 26.8. no flying or one mission only could be possible.
A KC-707 is in the air now, so it seems 'possibly one mission' has a green light?

Seems like the 707 did a round tour at medium level, no fighters involved (so far)

Re: IDF-AF to excersise in Germany #bluewings2020
Otto, F16's AM used Talon1/4, don't know in which order.
EF2000 30+94 Vader41, and 31+37 Vader42. (forthe record, i have 31+37 down as 31+27, but i was at home listening to the tankers, so might have wrote it down incorrect).
