TLP 2019

[MartinK]

All,

I notice that for all the TLPs in 2019 the flying course only lasts 3 weeks, in the past they have been 4 weeks. Does anyone have any idea on how this will impact on the arrival of the extra aircraft for what used to be the final 2 weeks. Also any idea when the non-flying day may be ?

thanks

Martin

I assume that no one has heard any details about TLP 19-1 yet,

Have just driven past the base 10/02/19 12.50 and the TLP ramp is empty. Does anyone know if 2019-01 is still on?

[Spotter2000]

I suspect that the new setup of TLP means that week one is completely acadamics. Week two and three will see flying every day! This way units will only have to send aircraft to Albacete for two weeks instead of the previous four weeks.

Yes, I’m now told next week F-15E US, F-16 GR & BE, EF-2000 IT, Rafale FR, EF-18 ES, Tornado GE, CAEW IT, E-3A NATO.

Time will tell

You are right in what you say. We have been told by the Spanish at Talavera the flying will only be on the second two weeks
