Frisian Flag 2017

[Hornet69]

As it seems that the upcoming week equipment is brought to Leeuwarden does this mean that 12 "JZ" F-15's wil arrive somewere after the 20st of March? Frisian Flag starts on the 27th of March.

And will some F-15's stay at Iceland? Just like last year? Or will Leeuwarden see all 12 of them?

Just curious.

In the UK it is said (roumour) that JZ eagles will arrive Lakenheath the 18th. So that would indeed mean arrive 20th or shortly after that. Which fits in with the cargo arrivals.

I'd guess not, since Italian Typhoons just started patrolling the air space there.

Does any of you guys know if there's any spotting day foreseen for the Frisian Flag 2017?
Cheers

Spottersday only for some Dutch spotting groups (AGL & KnvOL), so you have to photograph from the outside
