Re: Frisian Flag 2022
Is it know that, if they come indeed, when the Canadians will arrive?

Re: Frisian Flag 2022
It's been silent for a few days here. Haven't seen any updates from the participants. However I can not imagine that with the current (fast) evolving situation in Ukraine there are many participants that are actualy still considering to come to Leeuwarden (especially the PoAF) . And even if a few do send aircraft; would they still have enough A/C to conduct the exercise in such way that it actually has some purpose?According to Flugzeugforum, the GAF has canceled her participation.
I always say a boy can learn more at an airport than at any school.

Re: Frisian Flag 2022
Apart from some insight into your imagination there is no news value in this remark, nor a question. Can we go back to topic and refrain from fishing to securities that cannot be given?Thermal wrote: ↑07 Mar 2022, 09:35It's been silent for a few days here.

If Frisian Flag is still a go; we could probably scrap the Polish Mig-29’s of the list.The authorities of the Republic of Poland, after consultations between the President and the Government, are ready to deploy – immediately and free of charge – all their MIG-29 jets to the Ramstein Air Base and place them at the disposal of the Government of the United States of America. -Polish Government website

Re: Frisian Flag 2022
Latest word is that the Polish And Germans have canceled their participation. But that is still not official. Also it seems that the RNLAF is pushing the GAF a bit to still participate… We have still to wait for the final answer…
But one thing for sure, my numbers posted earlier, won’t happen….

Re: Frisian Flag 2022
For now.... But that's completely off topic of course. Whether this transfer happens or not, I'm quite sure the Polish won't be coming to Leeuwarden, not with Fulcrums and not with Vipers. Hopefully there will be enough participants left to hold the exercise after all!Snipes wrote: ↑09 Mar 2022, 06:47The US already rejected this plan...Tijnvandebeld02 wrote: ↑08 Mar 2022, 21:31If Frisian Flag is still a go; we could probably scrap the Polish Mig-29’s of the list.The authorities of the Republic of Poland, after consultations between the President and the Government, are ready to deploy – immediately and free of charge – all their MIG-29 jets to the Ramstein Air Base and place them at the disposal of the Government of the United States of America. -Polish Government website

Re: Frisian Flag 2022
According to FR24, CFC4151 (A310 of CC-150) is today expected at Eelde (vanaf Saguenay-Bagotville…). Might be related to FF.
Flight is, at moment of writing, on it’s way.

Re: Frisian Flag 2022
Noticed two flights this evening from Trenton To Bagotville (where the expected 409sqn is based), one is CFC3650 CC1777 177701, the other one was CFC4372 CC150 15004, CFC437* is used for air refueling missions only. So could it be that the CF18's already arrive this week?

Re: Frisian Flag 2022
409.Sqn. is based at Cold Lake but Bagotville could be used as a first step from Alberta.
437.Sqn. is also used for troop transport missions, CC-150 15003 landed at Groningen in the evening of 13.03.

Re: Frisian Flag 2022
Disregard, don't know where i got the 409sqn from. Herby on page 3 you already mentioned they would come from Bagotville.
