Kleine-Brogel (EBBL) - 2012 MIL

[Richard de Florennes]

Noted from a big sand hill at the western side of the airfield after asking local workers for permission, which was granted without problems. I was there just less than one hour between 13.15 and 14.15 after/before continuing work. All helicopters departed back home - so the exercise is over now regarding the aviation assets and the parallel runway is completely empty again now:

"Seems" is still a bit vague...
Where did you got this info? Can anyone confirm this?
What's there reason for moving the exercise to Kleine Brogel?

[Oscar01]

Hi,

Indeed bit vague, but no official info yet. Only that the Germans, Italians, and Avianos will arrive today at Brogel. So you can make up your own mind I would say.....
