I saw an F-16 in the TMA-D overhead Eindhoven at 0855LT as 'Bodo 01'. A second F-16 was visible at 1100LT as 'Dolly 02'. Both times the airman had a Norwegian accent. They switched to Rapcon West after their airwork in the TMA. I think it's safe to assume they were Woensdrecht test flights.
If anyone has more details, make me happy!
Thanks in advance,
Stephan

Re: EHWO 20-03-2012 MIL
The first one really sounded a little like 'Bonzo' at first, but that didn't make sense. Later on I really thought I heard 'Bodo'. And since Bodo is a Norwegian base, I thought that DID make a little sence...
So, thanks for the correction and confirmation guys!
