Looking for formation callsign

Post by Ramon Berk »

Hello,

I am looking for the formation callsign of the 3x Dutch NH-90 and 1x Dutch Cougar helicopters, who made a 4-ship formation flight from MVK de Kooy (DHR/EHKD) on Friday september 22, 2017 around 2PM local time.

On the scanner it sounded like:'Power formation' or 'Flower formation' or 'Fire formation'.

The formation flight was for a new Naval Commander of the Dutch Navy.

Thanks for helping me out.

Although I have not heard it myself.

Perhaps FIBER? (which is a NH90 callsign)
