Will they fly missions out of Aviano to replace the VAQ-132 Growlers?

In Brogel today were 154, 157, 160, 161 and two or three more noted by myself on the platform. But which one left? :?: :?:

13jul11 indeed six F-16 left KB, but one returned.
19jul11 four left KB, possibly via Aviano again. These are reported to be former FA100, FA111, FA125 and FB10.
FB10 seems the one that was airspare on 13jul11. Callsigns 19jul11 seem to have been RJAF01/02.

Any confirmation of an Aviano stop on the 19th more than welcome.
