Flying activities Spangdahlem

Post by ilkjepower »

Hello,

I'm planning to pay a visit to Spang next Thursday the 23rd or Friday the 24th to see the Raptors. Can anyone tell me which of these days the best day is to visit Spang? This because I don't know if there are flying activities friday afternoon at Spang. Please let me know!

Kind regards,

Wilko

Wilko, last friday afternoon there were no flying activities. Only returning raptors from the morning session.

Best advice is to go on the thursday.

hope this helps,

Peter
