Some info:

Today around 10 o'clock the Polish MiG29s landed. They are leaving TLP and continueing homebound via Neuburg. 1 Casa will accompany them, but has not yet landed. (the other casa will go straight to Neuburg and the herc will go straight to Poland).

Next week the unit will deploy 15-20 locals for gunnery camp, so might be bit quiet....

Oz

Hi Otto,

Thanks, though around 10.40 the casa still hadn't shown up.... no idea if it went straight to Germany or not....

Oscar,

Are you sure they are from Orange? Scramble SIS mentions they are Luxeuil based a/c.

[SquAdmin]

I believe the info came from Orange PA. It doesn't rule out the possibility that M2000's from Luxeuil will be leaving for gunnery practice as well (although it could get crowded at Solenzara).

[Supervisor]

17 aircraft departed Orange Sunday, 27 May.

[Oscar01]

Sorry for late call, but you answered your own question already

Serials will follow later, as one of our fellow spotters was there during departure.

Regards,
Oz

I was there last sunday during the departure of the 17 (of originally 19 scheduled) Mirage 2000B/Cs. I was surprised that they departed on 1e Pinksterdag/Pentecost (public holiday) although I had this information of their departure in advance.

Departing in order to Solenzara (minimal 2 weeks) shooting camp were:
