And Itaf Tornado 50-71 (shark mouth) flew today with 50-52.

The two Super Hornets also flew (each one flew in the morning and the one without marking once more in the afternoon). I left around at around 2 PM.
Also there for one touch and go was Alpha Jet AT-17.

Yesterday this Super Hornet also flex between around 3.30 and 4.20 PM.

Watching Maudit's pictures, it looks like it would actually be 50-41 (MM 7020).
The second Tornado which flew with this one in the morning was 50-52.

In the afternoon, 4 Tornados took off together, but I was too far to identify them.

In about 2 weeks time, exercise CJPRSC 14 will be held here. Only participants I found so far are the French, with a Puma, a Fennec, and a Caracal.
