6 Finnish air force Hawks Mk66 (ex. Swiss) will visit Valley from 2 till 9 september.
Last time they made a stop over at Leeuwarden, but as this is closed for runway repairs, i'm wondering at which airbase they will make their fuelstop now (Wittmund or another Dutch base?)

as for the serials don't take them as 100% guaranteed. #

I'll try and update the times in UK airspace tomorrow when they are actually airborne.

[Hans van Herk]

If the serials for the Hawks are correct, they are all model Mk51A.
Unfortunately not their latest model Mk66.

Good hunting tomorrow.
