G781 visually confirmed. Just flew low level over Wageningen to the south-west.

Damn, I should have had my camera ready... :cry:

A C17 dropping airbornes should be quite spectacular. Let's hope there won't be any change of plans.

Off topic: Nice Bday gift to have so much action in my back yard ;-)

Not a small dropping; a C17 passed overhead Ede twice already......

Out of my head, did 1 (opposit) run, 1 dry run, 1 run with 1 jumper and 3 with 36 and after that some high runs, might have passed Deelen as well (he did request in his flightplan)..... Very nice and impressive sight....
