CLSK is Commandant Luchtmachtstrijdkrachten. In het persbericht over de oefening van twee weken geleden stond het volgende:

Vliegbasis Volkel bereidt zich in deze oefenweek voor op een eindinspectie van de Commandant Luchtmachtstrijdkrachten in de tweede week van april. In de laatste week van april wordt de inzet van het vliegbasispersoneel nogmaals getest. Dan gaat een internationaal inspectieteam tijdens een Operational Evaluation het vuur aan de schenen van de militairen leggen en de resultaten beoordelen.

so can we expect LOTS of flying f16s?

The inspection from the CLSK (Airforce commander) normally doesn't mean any extra movements. Just the normal number of sorties will be flown.

At least thats what I've experienced the other times the commander did his inspection.

Kind regards,
Dennis Otten

During the CLSK inspection each wave will consist of a maximum of 12 F-16's. On Tuesday (first day of the exercise) only an evening sortie will be flown. On Wednesday and Thursday the planning is to have three sorties, one morning, one afternoon and one evening mission.
