E-007 (Have Glass V), E-074, E-598 and E-608

Two F-35A took of at 10.27h and were L-009 and L-010. They came back after 90 min. flying.

The afternoon mission for "Frisian Flag" took off at 13.35h and comprised of E-007 (Have Glass V), E-018 (Have Glass V), E-608 and E-611.

Taking off was T-17 T-429 which departed after three overshoots.

Two unidentified Esk 722 Merlin Mk.512 were parked the whole day outside, both didn´t fly. Also parked outside for some hours were three different F-16AM/BM, presumably E-008 (?) and ET-199 (?) (Have Glass V) and another Have Glass V F-16AM. All were used for some technical training and towing tractor training.

A rare visit was made from 9.45 to 14.05h by Belgian AF F-16AM FA-123 of 10.Wing.

On 12.10. Esk 727 F-16AM E-191 departed Skrydstrup for the last time as „Dannebrog“ and will be repainted at the Hovedværksteder Aalborg, most presumably in Have Glass V colourscheme.

More than four years it flew in the red-white colours and celebrated 800 years of the Danish flag. It was flown at air shows in different countries, like France and Greece.

T-17 T-430 is wearing the badge of FSNSK!

Thank you! So T-17s are not pooled but some are permanently assigned to Skryfstrup base flight? What does FSNSK stand for?

[Herby]

Most are based at Karup mit FLSK (Flyvesskolan). But few are also operated with FSNSK (Flyvesstation Skrydstrup), FSNKP (Flyvesstation Karup) and FSNAAB (Flyvesstation Aalborg or Esk 721) and are also wearing the base badge on the left side. But the base flights also operate FLSK aircraft on permanent loan.
