Hi all,

I will probably be in the close neighbourhood of Geilenkirchen later this week. Any info on the planned deployments of tankers? I know this is not the best time, with the Corona situation, but maybe some info is known anyway..?

as far as i know, there are now deployments scheduled due to Corona.
I haven't seen any report on tankers coming in lately and normally I see them flying over my house, but the last ones are from march already departing back to the states.

Judging from ads-b, most of the time Mildenhall birds seem to go up when the frisbees need fuel.

At least till the end of april there will be no tanker deployments to GKE, possibly going to last even longer
