J-144 T/O around 1200L for a FCF EBCI-EBCI as "NAF312A".
J-021 T/O around 1300L for a FCF EBCI-EBCI as "NAF312B" but turned Squawk 7700 around 5 minutes after the T/O.
They deployed both their dragchute.
Both of them don't have any Squadron markings anymore, only full colours KLU roundel. Same for the J-508. :)

In the end, J-515 returned to Volkel on 16 January, not 15, due to weather circumstances.
