Can we expect a Sqn Exhange at Florennes with Italian Tornado's?

[Arjan]

Only because there is an Italian herc visiting. ..
.or what more makes you think of a Tornado exchange?
Would be cool though!!

Well, in the beginning of March (6th I think) MM7036/50-55 Tornado visited Florennes for a nightstop. These are based at Piacenza/San Damiano. The hercules visiting Florennes today also comes from Piacenza/San Damiano. So the Tornado was maybe a pre-visit??? But time will tell??

[Arjan]

Aah....I see, interesting!! I believe that squadron exchanges don't happen that often anymore if any at all, but an exercise could well be taking place offcourse!
Thanks for the heads up!
