Er is nog geen Omega tanker gearriveerd op Prestwick, dus dit even in de gaten houden, moet minstens op zondag of maandag binnen komen om klaar te zijn voor de terug reis

Zojuist wel CC-150 15004 geland op Prestwick. Dit is een MRTT.

De Canadezen hebben aangegeven dat ze sterk afhankelijk zijn van beschikbare tanker- en transportcapaciteit (vanwege de welbekende situatie in het oosten). Ze gaan gebruik maken van zowel Omega als ook eigen CC-150s voor de ferryvluchten terug. Dus goeie kans (maar geen garantie!) dat deze Polaris wel betrokken zal zijn bij de terugvluchten.

Question, are the Canadians leaving Tuesday 12th of April? Or not sure yet? I hope someone can give the answer. Many thanks in advance!

*Maybe* some of them will leave on Tuesday (which is the 12th, not the 13th). They will leave in batches, so probably two threeships, with the second one later this week. But that last bit is just speculation. If somebody knows for sure, I'm sure they will share it here.
