Yesterday (20-08-09) at the Nordhorn Range during a FAC exercise:

High angle bombing -> RTB Lakenheath
00-3000/LN F-15E 48FW WILD41
91-0314/LN F-15E 48FW WILD42
Wild 42 had some radio problems, decided to take some fuel from the tanker during the exercise and
got some more problems which resulted in a aborted mission. WILD41 stayed at the range.

91-0408/SP F-16C 22FS JUDGE02

2x F-16C 22FS GUNMEN01/02

2x dry passes -> climbing up to FL350 RTB Florennes
1x F-16AM NN BAF215 (c/s also MATRIX)

Hi Brian,

Could you perhaps indicate on a google map or something where you were watching? I'd like to go there next week perhaps.

By the way.. this week not much is going on on the range. As far as i know the FAC exercise is over.
But you can always try you never can tell in advance....
