I've noted that the intel is always a bit on the quiet side when Israel is involved.

Columbians are on their way. They arrived in the city of Houston enroute to Tucson where they will get used to flying in the states.

Noted were:
KC-767: 1202.
Kfir: 3047, 3053, 3059.

Not sure when the others will arrive.

Does anyone know when the participants will arrive at Nellis? I.e. what is the arrival day typically?

I'm in LV the week before Red Flag...
