Not complety true as the last interception was done by 2 Volkel F16's.
This interception was done by 1 F16 (AJ02) and assisted by the RAF aircraft even into the German air space, because AJ01 had a ground abbort.

Really? Ah well, what can I say... Those Volkel gliders need some fun too

Anyone the serial of the Scramble-Viper?

[Optimus]

Damn... Next time the F-16 pilots should invite these Bears over for a base visit
